FGC15 clutch removal

Hi all,
I'm replacing the clutch in my old FGC15 and don't have a service manual.
I've removed the bronze plug on the transaxle and pulled the splined engine shaft forward using a modified small block Chev harmonic balancer tool.
I've been able to remove the six bolts holding the clutch assembly to the flywheel.
How do I compress the clutch to make it thin enough to now slide up out of the bell housing?
The clutch has 9 springs and three levers (which are destroyed where they contact the throw out bearing).
Any tips or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I am having a hard time finding the main drive shaft puller tool. Do you know what threads are on the shaft so I can make my own? Or know of any other homemade tools to pull the drive shaft to swap out the clutch? Thanks!

The pressure plate has 3 bolt holes which are accessible thru the holes in the back of the cover. I would get a replacement pressure plate before trying to remove yours to see exactly where the bolts go & what size they'll be.

You tighten these 3 bolts into the back of the pressure plate to collapse it in to make it thinner which will make removal possible.
