I ordered a flywheel from GEX. I opened it today and it was lacking the holes for the three flyweel pins that align the pressure plate. There are six bolts doing essentially the same job. Is this something to worry about - can I ignore them - should I send the flywheel back, just drill my own holes using my new pressure plate as a template or just not sweat it?javascript:emoticon(':sawzall:')

The machine shop has to pull the pins out to turn the flywheel. They machine two surfaces, the one where the pins are and the lower disc surface. You should have removed the ones on your old flywheel and reused them.

I would not run a pressure plate with out them. They are not that expensive.
