Does anyone have a picture of a installed clutch fork to throw bearing.

I need to see if my fork is correctly installed. On a 71 Charger BB 4-speed.
 
I think it would be very hard to get a picture of the clutch fork and T/O bearing. I just replaced my fork and pivot and it was pretty easy to do. What you want to see is the clip on the fork snapped in place with the pivot riding in the groove of the fork. At the same time the two clips on the T/O brng need to be snapped over the ears on the fork... Ed

Looking to make sure the fork is engaging the bearing correctly. Can you make it out by the picture?

If the image could be seen the front tip of the fork is touching the bearing surface at the clips. I was thinking the fork should go further forward past the angled tips.

If it is not installed correctly it will not pivot smoothly. A bit of good quality grease on the fork contact points and on the nose of the gearbox where the release bearing slides.
 
These pictures are from my 69 340 Dart.
