its possible for the pieces of pressure plate or clutch to rip through the floor because the stock cast aluminum bellhousing doesnt do much to contain an explosion and definitely has happened before.

i saw a pic of a 32 ford that had the flathead flywheel explode and it ripped the hood and fenders off the car. and broke the flywheel(duh) starter, clutch, bellhousing and i think the crank too.
