hi
im building a live axle locost and i happen to have a good spare rs turbo engine which i would like to use its based on the 1.6 cvh so i was wondering if anyone had used this engine and knew what clutch and flywheel combination to use i would like to retain the standard flywheel as it thas the 36-1 trigger patern for the efi on it so it will make it easier for megasquirt
any info would be a great help

Well, my Sierra is a 1.6CVH with a Type 9 so I can't see you having big issues.

Apart from it missing an engine mount mounting point on one side of the rsturbo engine, iirc the way to overcome this was to fabricate a mount using the alternator mounting points.
