Hi Guy!
During my current engine build I discovered some differences between flywheels from the 131 and 130TC Abarth:
Here is a std 130 TC flywheel with a bush in the centre.
Here is the 131 flywheel I am planning to use - the bush is too small to fit into the central hole...
I never thought of measuring this as I thought it would be "plug and play" - not so.
Is there any "system to it" - regarding differences between the flywheels in the Fiat Lancia family?
Best regards
Remi Lovhoiden

Re: Flywheel bushes RWD vs FWD applications
Maybe I am mistaken, but I remember something about the transverse (Beta FWD and Montecarlo / Scorpion) twin cam installations using a solid metal bushing while the RWD installations require a ball bearing. A ball bearing would work in the transverse applications but is not a requirement? It never really made sense to me, maybe Guy could clear this up.

Re: Flywheel bushes FWD vs RWD
It may be that the input shaft on the FWD transaxle applications does not actually go into the bushing / bearing as it is short. The bushing is only used to center the flywheel?
