(Check that the two metal spacers are inserted in the two ears of the clutch housing where it attaches to the engine block. The spacers are brass and are .010 thick. Their purpose it to properly align the housing to the drive line of the car. They should be the same thickness as the gasket installed between the housing and the block. If they are missing they can be easily installed. Bratton has them in their catalog.)

Do you have a picture or diagram of this location?
