This really is the type of puller you should be using on that... It'll bolt right into the hub the way it's supposed to..

There’s also one that I use which you remove the 4 bolts on the clutch, install the puller and 4 bolts and drive it out.Do you have a FSM? That puller you have will destroy the clutch basket.

I can not get this cover on to save my life. It will not line up with the splines. 32 amp CompuFire system. Stator went in great. 55520 kit

Would it be OK to use the old cover? I just don't see this cover going on.

After taking a break for a day and reassessing, it went right on in the first try. I got down to ground level this time and just slid right on.

Sometimes walking away and taking a breather, just works.

^^couldn't agree more. I've done it a few times on this project.

Now waiting on primary cover and various nuts, bolts and regulator mount.

On the list next:
Evaporust Tank, then mount.
Brake Lines
Clutch cable
spark plugs
fresh fluids x3
Drop a cam in it.

Lots of little things to finish off, but getting close. Never realized how expensive spoked wheels can be. 1k for a front wheel. I paid $1,200 for 4 wheels on my wife's BMW.
