What is this that I have the red arrow pointing to? I just noticed today that there is a bolt/screw missing where I have circled and there seems to be some dirt and grease and stuff that got up in there. Could this cause a problem? This is a 95 z28 6 speed. Thanks for any help.

 

Yeah, that's just a dust shield to stop massive amounts of dirt/water from getting up into the clutch/flywheel/bellhousing. At least it's still in place ... if it were missing completely would be a different story. Put a new bolt in there and be on your way .

 

Looks like Pete has you covered. Nice headers.

 

Only a true gear-head can offer a compliment on something like headers!!

 

Thank you. It's nice to be recognized for what I am.

 

Thanks for the help and compliment.
