Found the Clutch problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well I pulled the tranny and the clutch was fine as well as the pressure plate and bearing. BUT here is the problem.

SOOO can i use the old bolts and what could have caused this? I torqued them down to 81lbs. I did forget to use LOC-TITE but could that happen so quickly? only 200 miles? The crank bolt holes look ok not stripped or anything.

If the socket will tighten them, I'd say use some thread locker and give it another whirl. ;D

I've never even used a torque wrench or Loc-Tite for flywheel bolts and I've never had any problems. :-\

I probably juts jinxed myself. ::)

I suggest getting some thread locker. The marks look weird though, they don't look like straight grinding on top, can you see where it hit. Can you see any marks that hte bolts caused, cuz they hit something.
