8 bolt flywheel

Amazonjulian · Oct 11th, 2014, 19:19

Does anyone have one that they don't need. I am preparing a B20 for my Amazon and the engine I got was from an auto. I can't use the flywheel from my B18 as it's a 6 bolt
Cheers

I though the only 8 bolt B20 cranks were fitted to the very last of the B20's that went into the first 240's, mostly USA market. There are internal differences too. Just because yours is an auto doesn't make it 8 bolt.

Hi Derek, there are 8 bolt holes in the crank and I removed the engine from a 73 big bumper 140 with Paul Till

I can confirm..... We put an 8-bolt flywheel into a 145 from a 144GL a few months ago, so indeed it seems the latest 140s had more bolts than earlier cars - more powerful?

sorry for the off topic...

I have also a b20 with 8 bolt crank.
Does anyone know approximately how much horsepower does the 8 bolt crank b20 engine have?

Thanks for that. I need a flywheel for manual transmission though.
