I was doing a pull and when i shifted to grab 4th My pressure plate seared off my flywheel breaking my input shaft to the tranny and then causing all of it to shoot through my bell housing.
My whole bell housing is shattered into pieces.
My pressure plate is stuck in between my cylinder head and the fire wall..... and I cant get it out.
My clutch put a divot in a concrete road about 3"x4"x1" deep.
i have a hole in my down pipe the size of a 50 cent piece.
there is a hole in my center council about the size of a quarter.
This is a quick pic of what i took from underneath it.
Very shitty pic but you get the point.
