Additionally, I have always, when slowing down to a light using rpm match, sliped it into neutral without using the clutch.

Re: Are new throwout bearings available?
For clarification - since this thread seems to be drifting from my original question - I've been driving sticks for ~40 years and never once have had to replace a clutch or any clutch components, so I'm pretty comfortable with my competence in this area. Since my ZR-1 is new to me though and is making some pretty obvious pilot bushing/bearing noises, I thought I'd ask about the TO bearing if I was going to be in there anyway. I think the question has been answered.

Re: Are new throwout bearings available?
I have a new GM part in the package. I think when I did the replacement tranny in my first 91 Z I used the one that came with the new clutch kit. The GM one is clearly marked made in China and I bought it back in 2005 or 06.
