I would hope so.



A long time ago, my friend had a 302 dz motor in a 55 chevy. Top of first gear the clutch exploded in front of a new car dealership. Shrapnel from the clutch damaged the radiators in 8 new cars. There were holes in the dash, windshield, severed the drag link. My friend got lucky, he couldn't walk for a few weeks that's about it.



My expectations are that a failure will be contained.



Are there higher end products?
