Perhaps I,m wrong, but doesn't the pressure plate "fingers" sit in a relaxed position until the clutch pedal is depressed, then the "fingers" spring away as the throwout bearing presses against them? The outside of the throwout bearing does not turn when pressing against the "fingers", it just spins inside itself. This allows the "fingers" to spring individually (all at the same time). We've removed pressure plates with broken "fingers" from vehicles, including tractors, when the job was began to replace the clutch disc, and the vehicle was driven into the shop for repair. That's how it was in the 50's & 60's while I worked my way through school at my Uncle's shop.
