Drax240z Posted March 23, 2001 Share Posted March 23, 2001 I am almost ready to put my engine in, just have to workout the flywheel clutch install. My engine was formerly an auto, so it just had a flexplate, and spacer with the 6 attaching bolts. Now I have a 240mm MT flywheel. I know I need to get rid of the spacer that was on there with the flex plate, add a pilot bushing to the crankshaft (for the input shaft of the tranny)... What I am wondering, is if I need to find some bolts meant for a MT flywheel, or if the AT flexplate ones are the same. The flexplate weighed around 4-8lbs, while the flywheel is 27lbs... rotating at 6000+ rpm I want to be sure. ------------------ Richard Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayZee Posted March 23, 2001 Share Posted March 23, 2001 I would imagine that the bolts are the same but you are right (can never be too sure) If the parts guy at your local nissan dealer can spare a minute ask him to check to see if the part numbers are the same. If they are not I'm sure you can find some flywheel bolts, if you can't let me know. I'm sure I got a few sets kickin around.. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
