Awesome that you found the issue!

I know it sucks that you have to be the example,but this thread should serve as a reminder to EVERYONE that following the proper FSM torque procedure is crucial. THis could have ended much worse!

No doubt man! I have no problem being the example , everyone needs a good lesson. Im thankful to have gotten off with much less damage. But I highly agree Torque wrench and Loctite are imperative.

You used loctite red and step torqued those flywheel bolts to atleast 90 ft lbs right?
Yes very much so. I tried to be as descriptive and visually informative as possible via video analyzes but I understand sometimes they are skewed or exaggerated .
