Getting a clutch together

No need to be perfectly square,just making a clearance....I know,I was that man , have the T-shirt etc.etc...

Unless you want the friction disc to be in balance, true you are removing metal close to the center of rotation. I would still go to a shop with a lathe.

Regarding the concentric clutch cylinder approach, I've thought about it but I don't know how to get the adapter / mount plate made. Can anyone advise?

Also, which slave cylinder? There seem to be many types for the Saab. I'd be looking for one with a remote bleed nipple.

Finally would a new master cylinder be required?

If you fit one of those concentric clutch things when it leaks you will have the pleasure of removing the engine each time

I've used a Saab 900 a couple years ago when I fitted a 5 speed Lotus gearbox on my street car - no change on the master cylinder, been quite pleased with it so far so I'm going to fit one in my race car when the time comes (could be a few years at the current pace....) - rather cheap, too (less than 50 for the new slave assy iirc)
