I've just installed a new clutch and the fork has .525 inch free play. I've read it should have about a half inch but not over that and if it does I should shim the ball behind the fork. Is .525 too much and should I shim the ball?

.525" is pretty damn close to .500". However, the rule is if you cut the flywheel, you shim the pivot ball. Use a nice flat washer, like one of the ones on the diff cover studs. Thje Cap'n
