my last motor suffered an early death by a torn up thrust bearing. I need some help double checking EVERYTHING to make sure it does not happen again. Last motor lasted 100 miles.

what I know so far, throw out bearing has 3/16 of air gap.

the input shaft is in and not bottomed out, trams and bell housing mated perfect and did not have to force them together.

trans slip yoke has 7/8 to an inch of play.

drive belt I am able to get over all pulleys and is tight but can twist belt by hand.

All accesories are are lined up.

ANY OTHER THINGS TO CHECK ?!?!

I'm going to move this from the Automatic Transmission section to the Manual Trans section.
