Quick Flywheel Question

Recommended Posts

dumbiron

I have had a search around and not found the answer i am after so...

 

I am currently converting a 205 1.6XL from automatic to manual, I have stripped everything i think i am going to need off the doner car (1.8 GLD) so have a BE3 gearbox.

The XL is a '92 model so has the single point injection fitted.

So the question is what choices of flywheel do i have ?

Thanks in advance.

It all depends on what engine management system you intend to run it on when you've finsihed the conversion.

 

The single point injection flywheel has a crank sensor which is needed for the ecu so if yu stick with this system (although its not suitable for the GTI engine) then you need the flywheel from either a late cat equipped 1.9 GTI, 306 1.6, 1.8 (8 & 16v) or an Mi16 flywheel (but this needs a different clutch).

I can't help but think that the diesel box will be quite unsuitable for a 1.6 N/A engine.

The only reason i went for the diesel box is the fact that there was a spare diesel car parked in my back garden. The (ex)auto is just a toy at the moment so will probably be developing for many months to come yet.

 

Thanks for the flywheel info ^_^
