They took a small slug out of the flywheel to balance it. The pressure plate was drilled as deep as they dare on a clutch spring boss. They had been drilled on the other 3 already at Mcleod so it seemed obvious to me there was some balance issues from the get go with this PP. The balancers also shaved some off the housing on the same side to get it balanced. The PP doesn't sit flat to the FW without the friction plate in there. It also looks a little burned on about a third of the FW. I figured at this point we were onto something with the balancing so put it all back together. Same stinkin problem! I'm really not trusting this clutch at this point so I'm planning on trying another breed. Several of my trusted advisors suggest Centerforce so I think that's the next step.
