[B]Racing beat flywheel question[/B]
so, i dont have instructions for this thing. i bought it second hand and i didnt know that i would run into this problem. but, here i am. anyway, there are spacers but i dont know where they go.
it looks like spacers go in between the pressure plate and clutch disk. but, does that make sense? ive never installed one of these flywheels before and i dont wanna screw up my clutch. so, there is the question. anyone who has installed a lightweight aluminum racing beat flywheel, where did you put the big spacers. i called racing beat and they said they were "0.312inches plus or minus 0.001". so, i converted it and its about 5/16. its like a freaking nut man! so, the only place i saw where that would fit is in between the clutch disk and the pressure plate. am i wrong, or worrying too much?
ill be finishing this up (if i get a definitive answer tonight) tomorrow and ready to try it out!!
Thanks guys,

so the gigantic 5/16 nuts (basically) go inbetween the pressure plate and flywheel? thats pretty much the only spot that i thought they could go, but i wasnt sure. thank you for answering. i was wondering because the pressure plate and clutch disk are basically smashed ontop of each other, and there was still this massive gap in between the pressure plate and flywheel. i was thinking if i tightened it with nothing there, the clutch disk would probably break, and that would not be cool. so, as i suspected. thank you, that allieviates some anxiety!
thanks again,
Ry.

No it's not you. I thought for sure I saw PDF's. I could be suffering from "mad cow". I bet if you called them and said that you lost the directions they would email them to you.
