I am installing the clutch assembly on my Cobra. I have torqued the 6 bolts on the diampram housing to the flywheel (14ft/lbs.) and there is a small space between the pressure plate housing and the flywheel, maybe 1/16 of an inch or less. If I torque the bolts tighter, the clearance will go to zero but I am compressing the pressure plate springs when I do that. Is there supposed to be that small space between the flywheel and the pressire plate housing when properly installed?? I assume there is but it seems strange to that only those small 5/16" bolts will be in direct contact between the flywheel and pressure plate.
