If I put the clutch disc right at the end of the transmission input shaft, just as the input shaft splines start to taper and match that where the clutch hub splines start to taper, My clutch disc is .5" away from the flywheel.

Both sides of my bellhousing have cast flanges of .5", so if I take .25" off each side of the bell I get my .5"

So should I just go the full .5" 50/50 on the bellhousing, cheat the clutch disc forward off the splines about .1" or so and do .4" split or what? Mill the engine mounting surface more/less than the trans mounting surface?

I was even looking over at the mounting surface of the transmission since it has a thick .65" mounting flange thinkness. Think a machinst can stand the trans upright in a machine to mill it? That way I can split the .5" divided by 3?
