well it looks like some one has machined the flywheel to much

and i have to machine the spacers down to make up for it

well i know the old one was a centerforce and it was still good

so knowing that should i just put that one back in or put the xtd in or a combo of the two?

Okay, I understand that concept, but if your flywheel is overmachined, then its weakened to the point that I would NOT trust it anymore. Maybe you could get a used one?

Did you put on the new clutch...and go do a burnout with it to see how well it'd stick? Gotta break in the clutch man.

While you're replacing the flywheel, replace it with a lighter one. You won't regret it unless you have to drive in traffic all the time.

almost no slipping is possible just driving it normal it chirps second mainly cause im not used to it but i love it

thanks for the help
