What happens when the flywheel lets go on a 557 ci., Kaase headed BOSS motor. bellhousing was sfi certified but the fly wheel was not the bellhousing didn't contain the flywheel when it let go because the bolt holes in the block broke.

Yeah well with no SFI bellhousing if it was in a car I would definitely have no legs. I bet it would have done a lot more damage if it had not been slowed down by the bell and block.

There is a steel block plate in between the bell and block, so it would have really just been a little easier for it to pull the bolts out of the block. It wouldnt really have been able to cut the block up. Same thing woulda happened like the one pictured

I think that is why they make a scattersheild for autos, basically protects the passenger like the manual one.
I may be wrong though
