Mine Loosened up on me after I put my DTT in! It was probably a month later that I heard a horrible clatter so I took them out put locktite on them and they held until I shattered my flexplate last week! So I put DTT billet Flexplate in and I made sure to use plenty of locktite this time around!

 

[hammersley]

How much damage did the shattering do?????

I mean not sure what happens when this occurrs... ... ... . is it just a "simple" matter of removing the transmission and putting in a new FP????

Well I broke the center out of mine luckily I didn't ruin anything else when it broke! I was told that I could have broken my pump in the process but have had it up and running for 3 days now and all is well!
