Yesterday I separated the donor engine and transmission for the Victor TF, and pulled the clutch assembly. When I removed the assembly, some little chunks of bronze fell out. The spigot bushing had broken, the rear 3/8" or so shattered into seven or eight pieces. Wondering what caused that; anyone know? The input shaft of the transmission looks fine, and there's very little play in it. Clutch looks OK as well; disk is glazed, but no apparent damage.
Also, Moss lists two sizes, 1" and 1 1/2" long, for the spigot bushing for the 5 main engine, but no explanation as to application of either one. Anyone have any insight here? The bushing in question was 1 1/2" long.
Thanks,

Edit: By the way, the bushing was not tightly fit - slipped out quite easily.
