Easy Hydraulic Throwout Bearing calculation for shims Transmission Concentric Slave Cylinder Install

Today we're installing our CSC (concentric slave cylinder) also known as the hydraulic throwout bearing for our Tremec TKX 5 Speed. This is an FTE throw out bearing, 300k mile service life bearing, that provides a 20% lighter clutch feel than a mechanical set-up... per the guys at Silver Sport Transmissions (SST). In order to install correctly, you need to set the depth. I will walk you through how I measured the distance between the bellhousing face and fingers of the pressure plate, as well as the face of the bearing to the face of the transmission in order to calculate the proper depth, or "Cushion".

Come along we we chip away at the odds and end of getting this 6.0 in my 1971 Chevelle.
