    Flywheel torque ??

    Well i finally started messing with my 63t i have on crate, i decided to put my light wt flywheel and sbr clutch on, but i'm not too sure how what to torque the flywheel at. When i read the paper that cam with the flywheel(Fidanza) it said to torque it at the same as the oem standard for the stock flywheel. still don't know what that is though??

    should i buy new boltsa, i didn't have any problem getting the old bolts out... it was just a thought.

    Man i've been so focused on getting into my new place that i haven't been even thinking about this. But my car has been telling me i need to start working on replacing the tranny and engine, i'm at about 175k on my current engine and about my third auto tranny.

    I have a broken back engine mount, which causes my car to run like crap, and i think it's causing it to not want to shift out of park, it's like i have to pull on the shifter until it engages reverse, rev the engine a little to get the car to rock and then it'll fully engage into reverse and and i can then go into drive, but as soon as i put it in park i have to sometimes start all over again.

    Also i found out that when i had AAmco replace my tranny they only put one bolt back in that supports the motor from the front, go figure.


    So the list of problems will all most likely be taken care of with the full swap, then i'm sure i'll have a completely new list of problems.

    DOHCstuner yeah, i'll be in touch.

    ok figured it out, all i had to do was test fit one way and test fit the other. It's the more streetable of the two clutches they had from last year, i forget which one. i'll have pics up on my cardomain beginning of next week.

    Yah clutch only will go on one way. Other way it will hit the flywheel bolts. I have the SBR clutch disc and ACT 2600 pressure plate. The clutch is workiing good for me thus far. THey say there is not break in period, I havent been taking it the easiest on the clutch but Im not babying it either. Has held up perfectly since day 1(2 weeks ago )
