well i dont think the bolts are loose i torqued them to about 75 lbs
the pressure plate im not to sure about i just doesnt make sense to me because it was running really better then its ever ran and then i stop to let my friend drive and he turns it on and it wont go into gear. so we turn off the car put it into first gear and pull it into the drive way..

how would you explain his pedal height going out of whack when all he did was change his flywheel? bleed the line b4 you try anything else and see if that works then come back.. try the easy things first

did you forget to put the bearing in the middle of hte flywheel when u put everything back? Bleed your clutch, i had air in mine because it leaked, but i overlooked it....just make sure your lines are free of air...plus ur most likely due for a fluid flush.
