I'll hold off on making it until you decide

If the flywheel has a bearing in it, I'd advise you to keep the bearing rather then replacing it with a bushing, though. Maybe you can buy a new bearing with a smaller ID. I'd still be glad to make the bushing for you. By the way, the 3053 input shaft has no seal on it. It has a very loose fit in a sleeve and relies on a spiral groove in the shaft to "pump" any oil leakage back into the tranny. I learned this when I overfilled one and a quart of oil ran into the clutch housing and all over the clutch.
