Unhappy holy batman, my flywheel has 20 cracks in it!?!?
I took the clutch off the old engine about 2 seconds ago, the disc was toast., but the flywheel has over 20 various big and small cracks and fractures...it looks like the thing was about the shatter......is that normal for it to stress like that under heat??

Good thing my new engine has a new flywheel i quess.

Wow, your engine came with a flywheel? Was that extra?

On rebuilds, its usually extra.
On Mazda Factory Rebuilds, it comes with the engine.

If you need an 86-88 Non-turbo one, I have one that'd I'd part with for cheap...
