hI,

I know the holes are for weight reduction, but wont they just let crap and water in, making the clutch slip and /or wear earlier?? Just an uneducated question in this area!!

Well there not really for weight reduction as the bell housing is VERY light anyway, it's more for a racing sort of look. But if I'm honest I don't know :/ but if It does let crap into to the clutch bell housing arnt to expensive.
Thanks... Andrew
