No gap is created by the rekluse clutch. simply, when you install the core auto clutch you replace some of the existing plates with the rekluse. it comes in it's simplest form as a plate more than 1/4" thick, and some clutch springs to replace the stockers with. So out come 3 frictions and corresponding driven plates and in goes the "thick one". Now you tighten up the clutch cable until you have no play and then tighten it until you can idle the engine, in gear without it moving. It took about 5 turns before i was happy with the way it engaged. I am assuming that was the "gap" you were talking about, and it is created by adjustment. If you havent figured out how the plate increases in width and contacts the other plates as the rpm increases let me know. If you haven't figured out now that if you back off the cable (remember i said it took about 5 turns past tight?) so it feels like a regular(slightly stiffer) manual clutch, let me know.

Go take a look on the products page at Rekluse if you want to see the differences in what they offer now.
