the surface on the flyweel looks good like its been resurfaced.the throw out bearing looks great.Everything still looks pretty new like it should.i am puzzled.

Update...the clutch pilot bushing was the problem.Turns out there can either be a bushing or a needle bearing probably depending on which clutch kit you get.Autozone does not list the bushing for 87 and they only list a needle bearing that is not the right size at all.I had to go to Napa and get the needle bearing.Thanks for the suggestions.
