Pilot bearing is a bearing that goes inside the crank to kind of hold the input shaft in place and let it turn smoothly.

Throwout bearing goes on top of the slave cylinder to let the pressure plate kind of spin on the head of the slave cylinder.

Drill mod is not on the flywheel its on the hydraulics to make them flow better for smoother high RPM shifts

Sleeve the MC to slave hydraulic hose to prevent the hydraulic fluid from getting too hot and failing.

Thowout bearing is pushed by the slave cylinder and forces the pressure plate springs open when you push in the clutch pedal--to release the clutch.
