What type/brand of clutch disc and pressure plate?
It's a Clutch Masters FX400 with a yoshifab billet flywheel.
Do you think you could have had the inside of the bell housing faced down a bit to create a flat surface for the release bearing? I have a deeworks kit, and have been planning on using the internal slave.
Dry breaks are awesome!

You probably could, but I'm not sure it's worth it. The trick would be matching the throwout bearing sleeve diameter to the Ford size. The threaded sleeve of the bearing was a really tight fit on the bearing sleeve, probably just so it doesn't move closer to the clutch. You'd want to match that. If the Volvo sleeve is a smaller diameter than the Ford one, you could do it with a custom sleeve, but if it's bigger you'd have to add material. It's much easier to just use the Ford bearing retainer in my opinion.
