So I got the transmission back off today. It only took 2 hours! to get the car in the air and remove absolutely everything. Of course the dealer didn't get the UnirexS2 grease in this morning like they said it would be

I checked the runout of the clutch disc and it was about .020" and I got it back to under .010" using some light hammer taps. I also checked the throwout fork which is still good. That thing is so solid I highly doubt it would ever crack.

When I get it all back together I'll report back.

*** A tip I've learned pulling the transmission twice now *** When you get the transmission off, thoroughly brush the starter alignment pin with a wire brush (a found an old .22 metal bore brush which worked well for the starter pin bore.) Also I used a fine grit sandpaper for the pin itself which is attached to the transmission. Apply a coating of anti-sieze on the pin and the bore. This will greatly help installation and future removal of the starter.
