37 progress

After almost 30 years a motor is back in the frame. Is it possible that i may have reversed the throw out bearing? I can't adjust the clutch to disengage the pressure plate.

Looks good. Nice and clean.

I think your speedometer connection to your torque tube is upside down. Otherwise it looks pretty sweet.

Just a suggestion you may want to cover up the holes on the motor,You would be suprised on how lost parts can later show up in the engine , DON'T ASK
Another good use of Duct tape

Your speedo turtle is backwards and your bell zerk should be on the bottom half.
What's with your clutch pedal being at that low angle? That could be the problem?

Yes the turtle is upside down, as well as the U joint clam cover, grease fitting goes down on right side. also the clevis pins on your clutch adjust rod are reversed, the flat one goes on the clutch release lever, and the one with the spring holder groove goes on the petal side, so one end of the return spring hooks on the pin, and the other end in a hole on the frame, that's how mine is anyway.

The clutch disc could be on backwards

Nothing is tightened up yet. I can't remember what I did last week, let alone what I took apart over 30 years ago. I love all of the comments. I took the covers off all the openings for the pictures.

Looks great-it is a good feeling to get to this point.
