Man, that looks nasty, I mean expensive...

Even with the bellhousing protruding as far as it does, I'm betting the flywheel would be completely out of the wind should the bellhousing be trimmed just a bit. One could even apply Marks suggestion and add a thin skid plate for a little piece of mind.

Had a similar issue in a FF years ago. A slight 'adjustment' to the bellhousing worked like a charm.

Best,

T.
