Be very carefull tightening the pressure plate spring bolts. They are designed to "bottom out" . So make sure you make them just tight enough, those 6mm bolts are easily snapped from people cranking down too tight on them...

I have a built in torque wrench in my right wrist. When the arthritis in my wrist causes my bones to pop while torquing a bolt, that's 8ft/lb .   :-D

"arthritis in my wrist causes my bones to pop while torquing a bolt, that's 8ft/lb"

I know YOU know the difference Polar, But reading these two statements quickly may cause a problem...
 
 And I can relate to the Arthritis, sorry to hear another member has the scourge...
