I dropped the tranny to inspect a really bad issue I had getting into gear etc.

So I found two bolts that fell into the tranny from a bad mechanic job that left the inspection cover bolts inside. So it shredded my flywheel. The clutch side of it is uneven in certain areas and has burn marks.

So I guess this flywheel is unrecoverable?

How does the pressure plate/clutch look to you guys? There are some burn marks on the PP and the clutch has some circumference streaking on both sides.

Think it's still usable?

Still usable to a point, the friction surfaces on Fidanza's are replaceable, about $50-$60, the flywheel I would possibly look at getting balanced, and if any of the gouges from the bolts are deep there is a chance that this can propagate into cracks and the flywheel explodes.
