Zetec SE clutch release bearing?
Ok, so i tried to boly my type 9 with a Shawspeed bellhousing to my Puma 1.7 Zetec SE. I am using a a pinto clutch plate with the standard Puma clutch
cover and what i am sure is a standard sierra release bearing (using clutch cable not hydraulic).
The problem I have is that when bolted up, the clutch arm is almost at the front of the hole that it exits the bellhousing before it touches the
clutch therefore giving me about 10mm of travel on the clutch. I am sure this is not right.
So, do I
A) get a larger release bearing, anyone know whether there is one
B) get a larger clutch cover, again is there one
C) get a spacer for the release bearing (around 20mm at a guess) to go between the release bearing and the cover
D) replace the clutch fork fulcrum bolt thing with a longer bolt, spacer and washers to move that nearer the clutch.
D) will be the easiest to do but is this a usual option?
All comments, suggestions, answers gratefully recieved.

The taller bearing used to combat this is a CCT133
If you google it theres loads of threads on there
Just double check the measurements incase you already have one and need even more clearance

Many thanks, based on the diagram on here - http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/photos.php?action=showphoto&photo=a893307-cct133.jpg it looks like I
do not have the right release bearing, the top (gearing part) is a similar dimension but the 12.5mm plastic mount is only about 2.5mm on mine.
I have put some pictures on here for reference - http://anglia1968.weebly.com/engine--gearbox.html (scroll down to the bottom).
I will look for one of these.
Edit - looks like I am one number out on the INA part - CCT133 is f-202993, I have the standard Type 9 version which is F-202994.
