clutch help!!!!!!

i am disabled so building my mk with hand controls and have sent my old clutch from gsxr1000 k5 to america to be converted into auto usin springs and ball bearings.

i have received it back from efm auto clutch and have come across some probelms the main one been when you fit the top of the clutch the old one went inside the basket where this one is boltin ontop, this then makes it hang over where the casing bolts on, they have supplied a spacer as it sticks further out not sure what to do, cant send it back as it will take ages cost money and they kind of did there job by makin the clutch

will ry and add some pics but not sure how??[img]http://locostbuilders.co.uk/upload/a982003-DSC03257_opt[1].JPG[/img]

Looking at the piccy, it looks like you'd be able to have a new spacer machined that will still fit between the clutch assy and the coggy bit. You need to find a good machine shop with a milling machine and someone who you can talk to to tell them what you want.

I would machine the casing by hand using a dremel type tool, and then strengthen the casing by adding chemical metal or alumiweld, so that it doesnt flex when tightened up. Is this gap between the casing an oil way?
