[Flathead Fever]

Gently push the clutch pedal down with your fingers until it just barely contacts the clutch, it should not want to push the pedal back "at all" if the pressure plates' fingers are all even. If they are not, you will it in the pedal. When you remove the trans and before you touch the clutch bolts check the finger heights on the clutch plate to make sure they are the same height. Check the pressure plate and flywheel for blue hot spots. Put a dial indicator on the flywheel and check the runout while turning it with a flywheel wrench. Have it surfaces ground. Cheak the clutch discs' springs. Put the disc on the trans input shaft and rotate it to see if it is warped. I always install a new throw-out bearing when I have a trans out. You might want to replace the pilot bearing too. Make sure the new ones fit the trans before you install them, the clutch disc too.

Pace the car not pointing at anything you care about Stand off to the side. Have someone put the parking brake on, chock block the wheels and have them let the clutch out a little while giving it a little gas and see how much that engine is moving. Some movement is normal.
