Looking for a Flywheel

[mxp01]

Forum Members:

I've taken the engine out of my BE. It has an 1100 engine in it. The teeth on the flywheel were chewed down, so I figure I need to replace it before reinstalling the engine. I had another engine w/flywheel, but I discovered the pin settings (for positioning the clutch cover) were different diameters.

I'm looking for a reasonably priced flywheel (with good dental work) for the 1100 engine. I measured the pin diameter at 8 7/8 inches apart. I'm in Spring Hill, TN.

Thanks,

Mike Pennell

Wouldn't it bee cheaper and better to get a new ringgear for yours? They run about $40.00 and are about 10 minutes to replace.

Regarding the ring gear: I'm not sure. Are the flywheel's teeth the ring gear? Do the come apart?

Yes, get the ring gear, take the ring gear and flywheel to a competent machine shop and he can install it for you. It can be done in the field, but if you have a professional do it you should have no worries.
