Default RE: hyper 8 port help

Hello everyone out ther in RC land. I purchased this OFNA Hyper 21 8 Port engine i still haven't figured out wht 8 port means but i have an idea. But thats not important at this point. i got the engine without a flywheel and clutch so i purchased that, but heres were my inexpience comes in with this engine. the engione is going in A TMAXX 2.5 and i know with the engine i have in it the clutch spins freely and i would think that is the way it should be on this new engine.

The clutch on this engine has three shoes and a spring for each shoe i put it on the engine and assembled it to the best of my ability, i noticed that it was very difficult to get the bell on over the shoes and springs and is very hard to turn. For some reason i don't think that this is the way it should be simply because when i do get it on the truck and start this engine the clutch is going to be engaged and i know the truck will take off.

Does anyone know the correct way to assemble this clutch on this engine. i know i sure dont any help would be a greatly appriciated. thanks
