The parts car came sans engine, flywheel, and clutch. It has everything else from the bell housing to the rear wheels. In addition the seller threw in a separate (loose) engine with bell housing, clutch, trans, and OD. So I actually have two bell housings, two trans, and two OD's. I'll have to use the flywheel from the loose engine which is supposed to be out of a 71 E coupe. Looking at the top of the head tells me it's a B20E but no clue as to the engine's mileage or condition. So I will remove the bell housing soon and count the flywheel bolts. I wonder, if the teeth look good, if it could be re-drilled if it does indeed have the incorrect bolt pattern. At a minimum I may have the clutch side surfaced just to better my chances of a smooth working clutch. Also it's a good time to replace the rear main seal in the receiving car. I'm wondering if the main seal conversion to the 240 type is a good idea or not.
