idk if an alignment tool from a different company would work with SOS. if i were you i would stay on the safe side and use the SOS tool. contact them and see if they'll sell you one or ask if other alignment tool is compatibile. gl

okay, ill do that first thing monday. im just wondering because they have to be the same because doesnt it just line up the disc and so on properly. the size has to be the same, i just cant see all the tools being different.

I don't see how anyone's alignment tool would be any different from one another. I just installed my SOS clutch. The tool is just a plastic replica of the transmission's input shaft, but a little longer so that it will stab all the way into the crank for proper alignment.

I haven't done a clutch replacement on an S2000, but in years past I've used a cut-down wooden broom handle as a surrogate tool. Worked well, didn't cause any alignment frustrations when reinstalling the tranny. If you're caught without the right alignment tool, try that.

if you are still in a pinch.. find a deep socket that fits in the pilot bearing, then use electrical tape to tape the other end so that it fits snug in the clutch disk
