I think the bolt retro fit is considered a permanent fix. I have one car and it works just fine. The throwout bearing should handle any variations that the bolt could cause since it pivots on a paral

I'm going to try to flip the disk around, but I'm a bit nervous about that because I'm pretty sure I followed my Bentley & Haynes manuals to the letter about the orientation of the disk. I'm also go
