    Clean the flywheel up. Resurface if you want to make sure its going to work right. Buy the bushing, they are cheap and work fine.

    Some of the bushings have required a bit of reaming to make them fit right. Make sure you fit it to the input shaft to verify fit before you try and reassemble it all.

    Throw the bushing in the freezer for a few hours before you try to install it. Really helps!
