Check your clutch fork too though, mine snapped under the new clutch/pressure plate and was all types of fucked. But as everyone else said, you can't diagnose the issue without dropping the transmission. Pray for a clutch fork because that's the easiest thing to fix. heh.

Talked to the guy @ pineapple racing, he seemed to put a hammer to the nail of this problem
He's saying if your pilot bearing is a good ~3/16" of an inch inserted in the eshaft and spins nice and smooth with the alignment tool / input shaft that that part is good and crankwalk wouldn't accelerate/cause the failure
and for the transmission side of things, the race on the nose/end of the input shaft must be very very smooth like a wheel bearing race, texture needs to be smooth to not bind up the bearing, if both of the above are achieved it can't really fail
guess i'll check it out this weekend
