Wtd: Rv8 manual flywheel.

Looking for a flywheel to replace the torque converter on me rover v8.

Thinking of nailing the Toyota gearbox I have behind it..

Anyone got one going?

Here you go, there's also a conversion ring for something or other, I used it as a template for the engine drillings on my 944 adapter ring.

It all needs a fekkin good clean, and that clutch friction disc has never been run....

Looks OK, do you by any chance reside anywhere any of the services on the M1 and like going out at night?

I,ve seen plenty of RV8 flywheels, never seen one like that before!

Does not look like a landrover adaptor, also the bush for the first motion shaft looks very different, wonder what it was originally destined for?

I dont know what it was intended for, or its origins, but with the thickness of an adapter ring it does move the clutch back a little to compensate.

I have done the spigot mods they are for my Porsche 944 conversion, and nothing to do with this flywheel, I just hung it on my engine to illustrate it.
