Valerio Remiddi's tool

Thanks to Valerio Remiddi for sending me the information on the tool he made. In Valerio's own words:

I'm sending a picture that may illustrate the clutch plate / intermediate plate alignment procedure, feel free to use it. I made a 20 mm OD, 12 mm ID bushing and used one of the 12 mm bolts from the engine / frame installation.
