5 speed pilot bushing problem

Here's the deal. We have done a 5 speed swap and have a problem. We have a Fidanza flywheel and an Exedy stage 2 clutch. BUT there's an issue: the pilot bearing(s) is way to big to fit on the crankshaft, the outside diameter of the bearing is about 2.5mm than the inside diameter of the crank hole opening, weve used 3 different bushing and their all the same.

is there a different bushing that we have to remove, or take a old part out of the crankshaft?

pls help

Did you take the spacer at the end of the crankshaft out? Auto tranny's come with a spacer, which might cause the problems you're talking about.
