I've never needed a scatter shield, but sometime in the next 6 months I am going to need more T5 bellhousings..
Does the SFI rating ever have to be recertified?

FWIW, I'm thinking about one because my son and I are going to build a 'fun' car and plan on doing a lot of hard clutch dumps; but don't really plan on having more than about 300-325hp and the SFI rated parts aren't required for most of what we plan on doing

My thinking is this bellhousing is formed from forged steel and was then certified. There is no corrosion or damage that might contribute to its possible failure. Since it has never been subjected to use or experienced a failure I would feel confident installing it in one of my vehicles I intended to race. This bellhousing is overkill for a street driven Mustang, even with a moderate build. If I intended to race the Mustang, my feet and legs would feel protected against the explosion of the clutch assembly or the flywheel. Ive seen what a flywheel does to a Shelby cowl and floor pan when it comes off the back of the crank, Id rather have it spin around contained in an SFI-rated bell housing.

To my knowledge, the certification does not expire. They are not date coded.

Thanks for your input, Mark. I recall hearing something to that effect as well.
