I have two questions. Car is a BT7. What is the torque spec on tightening the pressure plate bolts to the flywheel? Also, how do you remove the pin that hold the throwout bearing yoke in place. I tried to drive it out using a punch through the hole in the bell housing but couldn't get it to budge. Any tips?
 
I don't ever remember being able to "drive" out the tapered pin, so I don't even try anymore...

Blind bearing puller/slide hammer to remove bushes.

The slave mounting bosses, if not stripped out already, are destined to be; as a matter of routine, I always put inserts in them. I've never had one of them fail afterwards.
