4kq turbo project- clutch questions

[Ameer Antar]

My understanding is that A/T flywheels are different from manual tranny 
flyweels. I was told they are thin and lightweight in A/T's b/c there's no 
clutch needed, and no material wear. On manual's there is a slight bit if 
wear and the thjickness and weight helps the clutch engage/disengage firmly 
under power.

That said, KH engines only had A/T's, so the flywheel would need to be 
different. Maybe fitting an MC w/ M/T type flywheel will help. You might 
even be able to put on your old 4k flywheel, but it's prolly smaller and 
the pins may not be present which is necessary for turbo engines. I don't 
know for sure if A/T flywheels are different, but you need to think of all 
possibilities. good luck.
