STARTER/FLYWHEEL QUESTION

I'm going to take this clutch and pressure plate to Detroit Clutch Masters to examine everything. They said that they can make sure the pressure plate is in spec and reusable. They also told me that they can sell me a Carbon/Kevlar clutch, which in their opinion, is the best clutch disc, even for a street car. (McLeod told me that I could install a 10 1/2" clutch disc with this pressure plate.)

I should also note that when I called McLeod tech and told them about the grinding when the clutch pedal was fully depressed, they apparently never heard of the clutch hitting the pressure plate bolts. They had me send them the throw out bearing (which threw out black grease around the bell housing). They told me it was defective and sent me a new one, which of course didn't fix the problem.
