When I was putting my tranny back in I noticed my stock flywheel had cracks coming from all 3 of the torque converter bolt holes. That was with stock stall, stock cam and 2.73 gears even.

Cartech's clutch used to destruct like that. There was a guy on CF that it totaled his car. Went through the windshield even.
