Is the TOB installed backwards?

Changing anything from side to tail is useless. The only things that matter in this whole equation:

Bell housing to engine dimensions - there should be no difference in the bell housings.
Forks - you said they are flat
Fork bushing - you said new bushing
Pivot ball - if there is a difference in this piece between the two boxes then swap the one that worked.
Washers - no more than 2 standard thickness, and that is if flywheel was resurfaced.

I seriously wonder if the TOB was installed backwards.

The washers change the geometry significantly. What I was trying to say on the last post is have you tried it with maybe one washer, and was it better or worse. I suspect you only need one or two at most. It sounds "over shimmed" to me.

I didn't know the T/O bearing could go on wrong but he is going to check it this afternoon when he removes ALL the washers and installs the new clutch fork cup washer.
