lt1 flywheel question

OK i am doing a auto to manual conversion on my lt1 motor. now i have everything i need but the pigtails for the vss and rev. lock out and all that good stuff. i was going over everthing i got in my setup and i noticed that my flywheel is in good shape but i went to screw the clutch bolts in and one of them never stopped turning. i wanted to know if i took it to the machine shop (again) will they be able to fix that problem or is the flywheel shot?

Should be able to helicoil it if it's a stock flywheel.

I just finished the same conversion. The only pigtails you really need to worry about are the vss and the reverse lights. The reverse lockout solenoid already has a spring in it that requires enough pressure to get the tranny into reverse that there's no real need to wire it up. And the skipshift.. who cares

What clutch did you decide to go with? What other mods are done to the car?
