Hence guessing when you installed the oil slinger assembly, it's tight to the front side of the trans shaft, instead of sticking way back out instead.

Also, double check, since you may have left oem plates in the basket, which gets removed when you are installing a extra plate clutch.
If you left the last two oem plates in, it would explain why the pressure plate is father off the basket and could be causing some of the problems.
