Hey, I have my tranny out now because I was changing my rear main seal. A few thousand miles ago I put in a Exedy Stage 1 clutch and a Fidanza flywheel. Im getting the bogging problems that many are getting because of the flywheel. I ended up stripping a thread in the flywheel where the pressure plate bolts on. Im just going to put the stock flywheel back in, but its not resurfaced and its Sunday . The flywheel has about 80k on it, would I see any problems if I just put it in?

 

It might get chattery and could technically not be grabbing as well as it should be. I suppose just clean it really good and you should be ok.

Why not rethread the flywheel?

 

I stripped a few threads on the Fidanza so that plus the bogging pushed me to put the stock flywheel back in. I just decided to fix the threads and put it back in, I used the Helicoil thread repair and it seemed like it worked. I put everything together after school tomarrow and see if the pressure plate bolts on okay.
