Default G29 Clutch noise?

I made a couple videos of the noise we're having and can't figure it out. It wont let me post the videos for some reason but if you look up "corey herrity" on youtube the last 2 videos are of what I'm referring to.

The engine is a remanufactured engine and we're not sure if it's a bad unit or if the clutch is bad.

Not sure, but that clutch bolt doesn't look right to me. But I've never worked on a G29.

Yeah I'm not sure that was the bolt that it came with when I got the cart.

Do you have the bolt to pull that clutch back off and run engine without it. Does the noise change any when you let off throttle and clutch opens back up?

I'm not sure how the engine would start. the starter/generators belt goes on the pulley attached to the clutch.

I had a similar noise with my 2009 G29 when I bought it. I checked everything I could think of, such as the muffler and the drive and driven clutches, and I could never find the cause of the noise. I ended up pulling the clutch off the engine, cranking it, and it still made the noise. So, my noise was in the engine. I didn't take the engine apart to figure what was causing it. I traded the short block in to a local rebuilder for one he'd rebuilt and I installed it. It's been running great and sounding like it should for almost 7 years.

Yeah... the motor that's in it is a remanufactured unit that we just installed.. so we're trying to make sure we didnt get a lemon.
