No scatter shield?? In the early 80's at Shoemaker--a 65 Mustang lined up against a 69 Camaro. The Mustang reved it up, dropped the clutch and BAM-- cut the car nearly in half and broke a girls arm 150 ft away. The flywheel exploded. You WANT a scatter shield.

Mcleod is the one for new and they are local--ask for George.
