I got to 33 ft lbs on all, then went to go back around to 60deg em and on the first one i got to 45 it started to feel easier. set the wrench back to 33, and it wouldn’t even click :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

OHH! Wow that sucks, well at least it only means a new flywheel, as I said, my crank stripped, was my fault… There was a little thin spacer and when I was doing the 5 speed swap no one specified whether or not it needed to be used on the flywheel like it was with the flexplate, and well yea, tapping the crank was not a good time.

Whenever I torque my PP to the flywheel I feel like its still loose as I could get it tighter by hand as it only calls for 22FT Lbs
