Default throw out bearing.

just put the trans on the motor and it does not look like there will be much travel on the fork before it hits the bell.3 finger clutch with the short bearing.Any words of wisdom would really help as we are putting the motor in the car today.Tom

Tom,not sure if you are using a repo clutch fork,but they do hit the bellhousing .I had to use an original in my 70 Judge.You could also grind down the area that rubs,but be sure and check the operation of it without the clutch fork boot installed.I dont know what your working on,but maybe this will help.I had the clutch in and out of my car trying to figure out why it was not working right,and it was all in the fork not made right.

Is it adjustable?

Looks like an aftermarket bellhousing.
I thought most of them had adjustable pivot balls.
