When the bolts finally did back out, I replaced my bad mount w/ a Place Racing (which I have been happy with)---- With my new mount, and bolts re-torqued the flywheel bolts backed out in less than 5 miles. THe motor was very solid in the engine bay, and the car was running great...the only down side----the bolts backed out so quickly---Could the now stable motor transfer the extra torque where it is supposed to go---and hence the bolts back out quicker. This pattern leads me to believe that the flywheel can't handle the torque (can you belive that--not being able to handle the torque on a honda I am almost positive that the flywheel is the problem---for the money you pay for the damn thing---I think it is worth just sticking w/ stock....let me know what you guys think the next step should be...I am voting on going back to stock.....(or buying a mustang) <--all this tranny work must be driving me crazy!!!

WOWWWW There partna. Let's not do anything to irrational!

Good info on the Fidanza and CM combo!
Rather interesting that the Fidanza flywheel could be the problem though; doesn't Fidanza make the Stock Hond flywheels?
