Mark, check your car has a dampened front pulley. Mine does. Some don't.
On the transit, there was a different front pulley for the SMF conversions, both SMF and DMF pulleys were dampened, but different (probably due to different crank harmonics)

not wanting to put a downer on things but in 15 years of being a mechanic i have never had to draw a box on with bolts i would say something is wrong there spring loaded csc or not mate, i always fit a box, get two bolts in then bleed the clutch and get a decent pedal before continuing with the job the amount of csc ive had fail on the first press of the pedal is unbelievable!

What do they actually adjust within the map?
I couldnt tell you cause i dont know what they adjust.we just got told that any solid fly wheel conversion we do has to go to the main dealer to get the ecu remapped/reprogramed.

Cheers for the concern,
Its up and running now. No leaks so far.

The car was running great. I gave it a bootfull on the way home and it runs really well.
Very smooth pick up.
