Re: 1991 tranny install
Get yourself a clutch alignment tool if you don't already have one. They make universal types. If that clutch disc is not centered with the pilot bearing recess, you will never get the thing back in. If you have trouble after this, check your guide pins, etc. Make sure all is lining up.
Did you trial fit the clutch disc on the tranny input shaft first to ensure it was the right one? I have seen clutches with different numbers of splines in the same type of vehicle, same year. Mid-year production changes... One thing you should also do is make sure the clutch disc can move freely on the input shaft splines. It doesn't hurt to put a small amount of lubricant on the splines to ensure this, but not a lot. You don't want it spinning out into the clutch lining. If the disc cannot move freely on the splines, you will have a binding clutch. Hope this helps.. eti engineer

Re: 1991 tranny install
Not a problem. This is the voice of experience speaking as I have done several of these and experienced about every problem you can think of. Another thing, make sure the clutch disc is facing the right way -- not 180 degrees out!! I helped a friend once who had installed his clutch disc backwards and it took a while to figure it out
Have a great one, whatever it is... eti engineer
