I'm at a point where I could remove the flywheel from my GT6-3 for resurfacing before installing a new clutch and transmission. The bolts are obstinate, but that's another story. The car has an esti

No doubt you can "get away" without doing it, I rarely resurface my flywheels. Might shorten the life of the clutch somewhat, but likely not enough to notice. Of course if the new clutch chatters or

The bolts are obstinate, but that's another story. The car has an estimated 70-80k miles. There is a minor lip (I think it's minor, at least) on the outside of the clutch plate's contact area that I

I'd do it. Even if its a show queen, you do not want her "weeping :-D " from the rear seal. Doug

First time I replaced a Clutch I made the mistake of not resurfacing the Flywheel. The car shook badly everytime I took off. Cheers Ken

Randall et al.: Isn't it still a major hassle to change out the rear engine seal even with the flywheel off? Don't you still have to drop the oil pan, and undo the rear main cap and all that stuff? A

On a 4A it is, especially since doing it right involves having the crank out. (Unless your engine has already been converted to the elastomeric aftermarket seal.) I was under the impression that the

The rear main seal on most of the six-cylinder engines is entirely diffent. It is held in an aluminum carrier bolted to the rear of the engine. It's about a ten-fifteen minute process to remove the c

Just to be clear, Chris, my TR3A has been converted to the later type clutch, and my Stag has one as original. I bought the Stag with a "bad TOB" ... which turned out to be something completely diff

I still am, for "original" applications. I've lost track of when I did the conversion, but it was just a few years ago, at the same time as my Franken-OD (TR3 shift cover, TR6 box, TR4 OD). Looking
