My average setup consists of a .5-1mm shim behind the collet (werks seems to need 2mm shim to clear the carb), 1 thin shim on top of the nut (I feel the cb spins better with the shim), then the bearing-clutchbell-bearing, and anywhere from 1-3 shims or so depending on slop. I leave about a .5mm slop for expansion on the end.
The amount of play is just right. It is under 1mm not exactly sure will have to measure it...but it has the same amount of play as all my other engines which run perfectly.
Yes I need a different clutch bell for sure because if Input any shims under the bell the bottom of the clutch shoes are exposed.
So longer bell...I'll order the ones mentioned...and everything should be superb.
