I am in the process of installing a SPEC stage 2 clutch in my '96 Z28 right now. I bought the pilot bushing (solid brass piece) instead of the pilot bearing (little roller bearings). My question is do I just use a standard high-temp wheel bearing grease for the inside? Do I pack the lube in the small hole or just lightly coat the inside? Also, how much high-temp white lithium grease do I put on the splined input shaft of the transmission (T56). Thanks!

The instructions for my bronze bushing said to use a light coat of oil only because grease would interfere with the self lubricating properties of the bushing.

 

Very little lithium grease, if any. You don't want that ending up on your clutch, and grease attracts dirt/dust and could cause some "stiction".
