Title: Flywheel bolts gouging Torque Converter
Post by: CatCarMan2012 on November 17, 2007, 04:12:09 PM
Is this common?  The Bolts from the flywheel were chewing into the TC. 
I got the car from an auction and the trans was fried when I got it.

Im replacing it with a T5 so I guess its not a big deal.  Should i check end play on the engine though?
