i think the dual mass flywheel is broken, sounds like rock in a can and rattling from the flywheel, right after i turn off the key, as the engine comes to a stop.
Can i do any harm to the engine or gearbox driving like this?

I got a new steel flywheel (i hope it makes less noise than the optional aluminum flywheel) and clutch kit from Carolina Clutch, only took like 7 weeks to get it to Sweden :crazy:
Not using USPS ever again :)

Can i find some tips on replacing the clutch, never done that before.

Having & Following the Corvette Service Manual for your Vette is an excellent guideline.
All Torque specs listed in it.
I use only ARP Fasteners.
Pro series.
12 point fasteners.
Most Corvette guys don't use blowproof bellhousing scattershields.
Tells me they are not serious Drag Racers.
Never have buzzed an engine to 7-9 K.
About 7-7.5 k is when stock stuff will fail.
