I went through that whole thought process myself just recently. On the one hand I am throwing things out like the entire wiper assembly, carpeting, windshield etc....I am replacing the drivers seat with a Comp fiberglas seat - and then I picked up the bellhousing and started to think.
Sure it is safer than a regular bellhousing - but then again if I want to be safe I should buy a Subaru - I looked at the side impact protection and thought that if I ever get t-boned I am dead meat. I checked out that 40 gallon gas tank with nothing for protection....being on fire never has appealed to me...
I thought about the engine - almost 500 cubes and designed to make power in the low to mid range - so why would I ever spin it to 7500? Missed shift? It has a rev limiter. Missed down shift? Possible I suppose. Chances of it revving so high that the aluminum flywheel comes apart are pretting faqing remote I would say.
So I put the damned thing on anyway - b*tching all the while.
I also hated addiing all that other weight like the engine and all that gas....weight is bad.
Put it on.
