I keep going back to the fact that there is a weight that was welded to the pressure plate housing for some reason by someone else and I don't know why which is my bad for buying it that way without asking.
I think I'll cut to the chase and take the flywheel and pressure plate to a machine shop and have them checked. I just don't wan't to put the thing in the car and have an issue I could have fixed now.
I'll let you know if I wasted my money...
