Redrilled Flywheel?

[labartonmd]

Is it possible/ practical to have a cruiser flywheel redrilled for a different crank bolt pattern?

Why?

What is your end game here?

Could work for a while,

-or-

Could cause some interesting harmonics, creating failures in components...


-or-


?


Good luck!

Sure. As long as it's not going back in a truck!

I'm looking for ways to get that Mopar 318 to match with the stock 3 speed. The 727/203 GRB/ aa adaptor/ toy t-case is just too long for the FJ40

Better to keep the Mopar flywheel and redrill it to match the cruiser pressure plate. Some flywheels are counterweighted to match the crank.

labartonmd, are you an MD?

Yes; I just think I'm a mechanic lol. I like to build the unusual just for the challenge.

Why not just use the mopar flywheel (it'll still work with the starter which is a plus) AND the matching pressure plate? The only part that needs to be Toyota is the clutch disk, and as long as the disk fits inside the pressure plate bolts, you're good to go. The pilot bushing may be an issue, but it's easy to fix and it's in the crank anyway, not the flywheel.
