ok, got the clutchbell off....grinded it down, seems very well balanced now....
here are some hires pictures of the clutch shoes and clutchbell...
seems like the clutchbell has temp band things on it (the heat marks....can't remember what they are called) also there was a lot of soot and grim on the chasis around the motor mount and clutchbell...is it possible the clutch shoes got burned up? i use a screwdriver and was able to lift each one up a small amount so i dont think they are frozen.
take a look and see what you think
thanks...
