hey guys, i joined the site because i have a 81 delorean with a UN1 transaxle. i have swapped a chevy vortek engine in place of the stocker and come into a few little issues with the trans axle..

the clutch cylinder sticks out too far and wont allow me to bolt the 2 together.. i came up with an idea about a internal hydraulic thrust bearing, with a quick google search i found this site and a detailed thread about UN1's

i registered and wrote out a HUGE pm, only to click send and be denied because i need 1 post count! lol

so here i am.. im going to post pictures of my setup

i need to make up a 1" basically... i can remove the section of the 1/2 adapter plate, but that leaves me with 1/2" to make up...

if i space the cylinder further back ( move it to the left more if looking that the pic) wont that interfere with the clutch fork and not allow the bearing to slide correctly on the shaft?

i am hoping there was a un1 made with a hydraulic thrust bearing which i can use instead, but i dont know where to look?
