Last month I had Spec stage 3+ and Spec billet Steel flywheel installed at ford .
Performed a proper 500 mile break in, loved the feel of the clutch I was very happy with my purchase . Now little over 1000 miles clutch started smelling burnt and you could hear it spinning on the flywheel if you let out easy... Called Spec they seem to genuinely care aske me to have it pulled and take pics. So I get the tranny out this evening , back of my mind wondering what could have happened. Long story short. The inner ring of small Allen screws that hold the flywheel insert all had shiny scratches around them except one single Allen ..... This single Allen was loose and was actually broken most likely maybe over tightened at factory. What this did, allowed that single bolt rub on and off on the clutch eating it up a little at a time taking little chunks and eating the clutch up with material . I never thought I would have to worry about a warranty on this clutch . I'm hoping this is an easy fix seeing it only a month old . Wondered if anyone had heard of this or has dealt with there warranty.
the Bolton the left middle with no scratches is the broken bolt .... Thanks Mike
