Default Re: Flywheel question

Important are:
1. Clutch face is parallel to the crankshaft flange;
2. Clutch face is flat, so no clutch chatter;
3. Ring gear is a snug fit.

Consider having the flywheel lightened and machine for a V8 clutch. Doing so will decrease the stress in the rear main bearing, make shifting easier, enable quicker acceleration and facilitate braking.
