Are you aware that there are different pilot bushings depending on whether the crank was an original stick crank or not? NAPA sells the proper one for an unfinished crank. Trying to put a standard one in an unfinished crank will crush it. Go ahead, ask me how I know that.

The roller bearing is from a Dakota truck if you want to try that route. It fits in the register for the torque converter, so it doesn't matter if the crank is finished or not.

IF the crank is unfinished you will have to trim the end of the pilot off. That's a lot easier than trying to drill the crank with the motor in the car.

thats the same noise i was getting. a growling

the crank is from a original 4 speed car and i removed the old worn one and installed a new one that fit good and tight

well shes all back together and working great! but not without a ton of what the f--ks. i took a members advise and fit the trans without the plate disc and wheel and it fit perfect. now get this... when it was out i fit the disc on the splines and it fit great. i installed the clutch and when i installed the trans it would not go in. after a couple days not sleeping and thinking what the fffff. it just made no sense. then i looked at the clutch alignment tool.... it said "made in china". as we know the disc needs to be perfect for everything to slip in perfect. so what i did was loosen the plate bolts so the disc was free and with the trans in place and after the bolts were loose she slide right in. you guys helped alot and one thing i can say to help you all is....stay away from the chinese crap
