Default Clutch alignment tool?

Does anyone locally have one for the S2000? Lead time from the manufacturer is 3-8 weeks and I'm simply not that patient. Please reply if you have a line on the goods.

Jerry, you already have the tools, "EYEBALL". Barely snug the pressure plate so that the disk will still move, and center it on the pilot bearing using your eye. I have not had any troubles doing it this way, and in fact had more misalignment issues when I did use the tools.

If you really need a tool, we can make one at my shop, but its gonna cost ya.

BTW, I think I have a std type and a hypo one lying around the garage some place ......... I don't know about you borrowing them however, you already have one "tool" on loan that's past due by a couple months (I think you have a book of mine past due about three years too )

I think we'll just eyeball it. The source of my concern was when attempted to center it and I rotated the assembly using the tool I borrowed from RT. It obviously wasn't centered but I know how I can work around it. Thanks guys.
