Well i got everything that I was told to get, the pilet bushing doesnt fit in the hole in the crank, is it supposed to be hammered in or should it slide in? And, does the part on the clutch disk, in the center, the part that sticks out go up to the block or away from it? Pics would be great.

Gease it up and drive it in with a soft face hammer. Cluth disc: raised part towards the block. I'll try and post an exploded view shortly.

I just had a look at a Haynes repair manual and says to lightly grease it before driving it in.

I just can't get my comp to cooperate. Sorry man. When I reformat the image to fit, the text goes all weird.

The disc should be stamped "fly wheel side" And the raised part of the the clutch hub should face the trans. If not it has a chance of binding on the flywheel bolts and causing it to drive in any position, including neutral.
