How comes? did you get rid of the T5?
t5's are shit , too slow and crap ratio's pal , good old strong box and all,
i thought about doing that....but doesnt the starter still interfere with the clutch cover?
Do you have any pics?
no pics pal sorry, why would the starter interfere ?
pinto flywheel, ap paddle clutch and pressure plate, pinto starter - simple good for at least 350 ft/lb
because the ring gear on the cosworth flywheel hardly protrudes from the rest of it.....have you got the ring gear teeth inside the diameter of the rest of the flywheel then?? I suppose the solenoid would just stop when the gear hit the rest of the flywheel........ignore me then. lol
I do prefer the way the Type 9 shifts, and prefer driving it to the T5 (much to my mates disgust. lol) If i can keep it for now i will......the point is, i need a real cheap solution.
An AP paddle clutch isnt that cheap is it?? and is it really ok to redrill a pinto flywheel for the 9 hole cossie crank???
