Peter do you have the mesure of that pp ?

The flywheel i ll use is a flate one, so if the LT1 pp goes to the LT1 it s
flate flyweel , then i could bolt it (make new holes ) to my flywheel ,
right ?
But the pp must not be bigger than my flywheel. if the LT1 use the 5000TQ
disk then i could bolt that pp to my flywheel.
-And why not by the way use the complete LT1 clutch(flyw + pp)  and make new
holes to bolt on the Audi V8. It s what i m doing anyway with another Audi
flyw to fit the V8 crank.
