John,   Thanks for the help  but I tore it apart again today and found that the pressure plate fingers were already pushed in when you tighten the bolts to the flywheel.   A trip to the hardware store for the right size washers for the back of the pressure plate and I was back in business.  Took it up and down the road probably for the first time in many decades.  
                I did order the HPOCA magazine with your article about rebuilding the 60 but this one runs so nice with no smoke I think I might rebuild a junkier 60 I have.    I will probably still have a few questions and appreciate you taking your time to help others with your knowledge.
