The pressure plate in my pic was the original thick plate from the direct pack. I machined it down similar to the inner forward plate leaving the "meat" in the center for strength. I didn't write my measurement down but .100" seams about right.
I prefer to load my piston and clutches in the drum then install a snap ring. I use either a feeler guage b/w the snap ring and top plate or set the drum on a flat metal table to us my magnetic mount with the dial indicator. Sometimes trial and error is the simplest way to set the clearance.
