new clutch time?
i put in a JWT clutch and flywheel combo a few months ago. i had a problem when i installed it, 2 of the bolts holding the clutch to the flywheel stipped out of the aluminum. i got them in using the few threads that were left intact but i couldnt torque them down. ever since i installed it, i get some hesitation when i shift at high boost runs, say if i go WOT and shift from 4th to 5th, it studders 4 to 5 times before it takes off. im worried that the bolts are loose and not letting the clutch grip the flywheel. surely the JWT clutch isnt toast, im running less than 400hp. now i dont know what to do, wither buy a new clutch and flywheel, or just put the stock fly back on. guess i wont know until i take it apart.
i put about 35000 mile on the stock flywheel, if i put it back on should i get it resurfaced?

I would pony up the money to get the whole thing uninstalled, re-tap the threads, and reinstall if the clutch+FW are still in good shape. That's really the only answer IMO
