The Sachs clutch kit comes with a little packet of grease labelled "spline grease", but without instructions of where/how much to apply.

For obvious reasons, I'm wary of putting too much grease around this area, or in the wrong places. So where/how much do you recommend appplying? Advice appreciated.

Side note: The kit also came with a pilot bearing, and a centering tool, which surprised me (I had these on hand already as I'f bought the Paragon clutch accessories kit). Not a big deal, just curious if this is usual (my impression was that the only thing in the kit would be the disk, pressure plate, and release bearing + shims/washers.)

it goes on the splines of your torque shaft. Clean off the splines and then smear it on the splines.

Is this important? I do not remember using this last year when I did my clutch job. It does not seem as if you would need grease there, the only reason may be for easier removal in the future..

exactly....helps the splines from seizing plus makes it easier to slide into center of PP. You can use copper anti seize on the splines at the rear and on the tranny so the coupler will slide on easier.

I was also thinking about things like the pilot bearing, guide tube, throwout bearing itself, fork bearings... and anything else under the bellhousing that needs lubrication.

seems a good idea to me i realy like resilient grease with soft metels in it like coper coat and nickel and ti seize of molilube ..

Since you didn't mention it, you must also pack grease inside/behind the pilot bearing after you install the new one, or it will dry out in a few thousand miles.
That would be a hoot.
