How has the friction plate been hitting the flywheel bolts? You sure your using the right pressure plate for the flat flywheel. Never seen flywheel bolts rub before..

theyre arp bolts so stick out more. most machine them to clear. kel's have obviously touched because the friction plate has worn over time
