I was just wondering if anyone here has shimmed their clutch pivot ball in an attempt to get better disengagement from the flywheel? I'm planning on doing this tomorrow when I put the tranny back in (assuming the sheared bolt remains cooperate by coming out).

I did the shimming trick. Like you said it helped a little, but I still ended up replacing my old worn out master cylinder and the slave just for good measure. Big improvement.
