John,
   I would measure it before and after. Chances are better than average of
it being in spec..
   My only caveat, do NOT let the thrust washer drop out of it's inset and
get between the flywheel and case as you tighten it down. The case is
apparently very soft there and gets smashed easily.  This sets you back
a couple of hours as you reshape it with a Dremel tool.
