I received this email anonymously from someone who wants to help out (and who is not a member of BullittClub.com).
"I seen your post on the Bullitt board about the transmission bolts being loose. I'm a Ford Tech and just to let you know Ford has released a special service message for us to check them if you complain about driveline noise. Also there is a technical service bulletin for the clutch vibration. All the ones I have done I replaced the clutch, pressure plate, release bearing and the flywheel. The TSB does not say to replace the flywheel but I always check the runout and find they are out of spec. If they do replace the flywheel make sure they replace it with the one for the Bullit. It is different than the GT flywheel. I hope this info helps and please post it on the board since I'm not a member."
I am posting this in good faith, hoping that it helps make the Bullitt ownership experience even better for those who might have a problem waiting to happen.
