Hey Dean,
It's amazing how many tools are needed for any vehicle, not just race cars! I was thinking along the lines of flywheel-related stuff: puller & replacement key. Your description brought to mind images of buggered keyways and potential for a spun flywheel, not quite a run-of-the-mill malady. As you probably know already, the key locates the flywheel; the nut & tapered fit retain it. The once-loose flywheel & overtightened intake bolts are the classic scars of a teenage mechanic or three. Personally, I'd helicoil the intake bolt hole. In this size (m6) it's that rare combination of cheap & clean.
Besides..you'll probably want to spend much of your between-race time tweaking your race car, won't you
