ok im finally getting around to installing my Ram HD clutch and I came across one problem. When i tried to bolt the pressure plate up, i see the flywheel(stock resurfaced..had only 10k and was in good shape) has the 2 locating dowel pins, BUT the pressure plate doesnt have hole to line up with these pins. i checked on LS1tech and a few people posted that they just removed the pins and it was fine... i dont know how comfortable i feel with that... i dotn see why ram just didnt drill 2 holes in the first place, and i also will not drill holes myself. I am leanign towards returnign this clutch and gettign something else. possibly the LS7 setup, but then i'm looking at almost 600 bucks.... i hate my car....
