I will say one thing though you old car is cleaning up nice. I hired a guy to help me with the clean up, I pull a part off and he cleans it so far its working great. I'll give you a call later though.

Well maybe that beam could have been like that after all. I would have to say the installation may have been faulty, but I'm glad the car got you home and there isn't to much damage. I'm surprized at the crank bolts though. I don't think I've ever seen any come loose on anything before. I'm sure they have though. I didn't use the longer bolts in the pressure plate/flywheel, so if those make you uncomfortable, get the longer ones from Randy. I got the flywheel from Ultra Rev, they have the replacement facing for them too if you are going to replace it.
