Default 289FIA and concentric throwout bearing---or not?
I'm getting ready to set up my driveline and I'm trying to determine which clutch slave system to use: standard throwout bearing with a clutch fork OR the concentric throwout bearing.

I have decided on a TKO-600, for which ERA recommends the concentric throwout bearing (I'll call it the CTB).

What, if any, are the repercussions should I elect NOT to use it? Anyone not using it on their 289FIA? Any regrets?

What, if any, are the hazzards of using the CTB? I'm told they may be a little "sensitive to how they're set up". Anyone care to comment? Anyone using it on their 289FIA? Any regrets?
