Couple T56 questions...

I just got my T56 and have some questions regarding it

1. Why are there teeth on the pressure plate? They appear to be starter teeth. If they are why do you need a flywheel?

2. Coming off of the right side of the transmission is a black line. Is it some kind of vent?

3. Is there a boot of some kind that covers the clutch fork?

4. I read something about a "plate" that goes under the bellhousing to keep rocks, debri, etc from hitting the flywheel, clutch, etc. Is that true? What does it look like and where exactly does it go?

If you need any reference, I've got some pics.

1.) I think your looking at the flywheel if there are teeth on it.

2.) The black line is a breather tube for the T56

3.) Where on the fork? I dont think so.

4.) The inspection plate has 4 screws that go into the bellhousing to protect it from debris.

in your pictures on the site, the flywheel is on the left, and the pressure plate is on the right.

looks like you need a clutch disc.

Oh, I get it now! Ok, so other than the clutch disc and bellhousing, I've got all the parts associated with the T56?
Is anyone here using the SLP Clutch Disc P/N 62551. If not, what other reccomendations? I don't need anything performance, my car's a dog haha. Thanks
