Not Ranked
I spoke with Tremec, McLeod, and Brent. The consensus seems to be that the bearing retainer is too long, as several here have suggested. If it works with the trans pulled 3/32" - as it is now (I will double check) - then I need to cut it back that amount, plus another 0.100" for clutch wear. So a total of maybe 1/4" or 5/16". PITA. I have to pull this trans again and bring the retainer to a machine shop.
