I was looking at a clutch catalog recently, it seems the diesel and 2.3-8v used a 8.5" clutch, while the 2.3-16v and 2.6 used a 9" clutch. Will the 9" clutch work on a diesel flywheel?
Will a 2.6 flywheel fit on the 2.5 diesel? (crank bolts and ring gear the same?) The reason for asking is I need to mate a 2.5 turbo engine to a 2.3-16v manny tranny, and the 16v engine will become useless if I use the 16v flywheel on the diesel. I'm aiming for 300ft-lb from the diesel, so the bigger the better with the clutch. Mitch
