haha. get it. Plus-4
I learned the hard way, just put that double sealed front Nova bearing in it, and keep the stock rear bearing in it....or replace it with a Nova rear bearing of your choice. and use a bearing alignment tool. even better just send it to Monty. He knows how to do it....
One thing to add. When going to that Nova front bearing remenber it's just a bit wider so I found that grinding the clutch nut a little on both sides helps keep alignment on your bell spur mesh. Do't tell anyone, it's a secret, Huh haah




aahaahah...
depending on your car obviously.....
