BSCC- Flywheel bolt interference

[Mark Edmonds]

The place I got the flywheel says the bellhousing bolts should not have washers under them as this will bring the bolt heads out too far.  The flywheel bolts are not flat headed.

Hello

I assume you have a flywheel with bolts instead of rivets.The bolts should be air craft flat headed bolts. If they are not that is your trouble. The solid flywheel is not inteaded for street use.

I finally "bit the bullet" and pulled the engine back out of the car.  Found that the noise was the heads of the bolts holding the flywheel together clipping the heads of the bolts holding the bellhousing to the block.  This is a new rebuilt bolted flywheel.  
Guess I will see what the flywheel supplier has to say about the situation.
So much for having it running before cold weather sets in.
I see Clarks has a solid machined flywheel that is 2 pounds heaver than stock.  Anyone have experience or opinons regarding using this flywheel on a 140?
