Is this common? The Bolts from the flywheel were chewing into the TC.
I got the car (88 cougar) from an auction and the trans was fried when I got it.





Im replacing it with a T5 so I guess its not a big deal. Should i check end play on the engine though?

I think what your seeing there is evidence of the TC "ballooning" because it was rev'd really high. I've seen that with TC's coming out of parts cars, and I expect mine has the same thing.
