That answers the question I had about whether a standard TO bearing would fit in place of the hydraulic throwout bearing. It sounds like the input shaft bearing retainer needs to be changed.

Trans was originally an internal slave transmission, with the slave and throwout bearing being one unit attached to the input shaft bearing retainer. I ditched that and the original bellhousing to go with the Advance Adapters unit. The throwout bearing guide in the AA kit bolts to the same location the old internal slave did. They use a mechanical linkage style clutch fork and use a threaded stud to attach that to the hydraulic slave cylinder. I should have taken some better pictures of that part of the process, but I was working to hard at that point to stop and take pics.
