Follow the manual to the letter and it will go very smoothly.  Make sure you
check that pesky pilot bearing that is in the end of the crank shaft.  I got
my van cheap cause the bearing had evaporated and the PO put in a new clutch.
He must've only driven it a day and the clutch pad sheared off of the disk!  I
guess he thought the whole tranny was wonkers so got I it cheap and replaced
the clutch and all was well.
If it is dry lube it with a thin flim of CV grease.
