Question Need Help - T56 Clutch Fork Problem

I just finished building my motor and put it and the trans back in the car, I have a 96 with a T56. The clutch fork normally is able to be moved in order to get it on the throwout bearing, but after I get it on and the clutch master cylinder on, the fork still rattles and if iI depress the clutch all the way you hear it rattling and hitting the inside of the houseing like its pulling too far, is there a spring or somethin that may have fallin out to keep pressure on the fork to stabilize it so it doesnt flop around after put together, it has already popped off on me once. Thanks, hope someone can help.

The YENKO had a 427 small block, a 383 would definatly not be considered a clone!!

If there is to much play the noise you hear could be a worn out throw out bearing or pilot bearing. I assume you greased the pilot bearing before installing the tranny? Also another thing to check is the bolt that holds the fork/pivot might be loose. HTH

the pilot is brand new and the throwout has about 2000 miles on it, ill check the bolt but do you know it it is supposed to have a spring or anything like a normal clutch
