Flywheel question...

Im being cheap and trying to save money on my swap...

Ok I have the following...

A cosmo 13b-RE
A 88 T2 trans
A 88 T2 clutch/pressure plate assy.

Now I need a flywheel cause the factory one is an automatic. Now can I use a Flywheel and front counterweight from say a FD? I found one pretty cheap. Will this balance the motor correctly and will my 88 T2 clutch bolt to it? Help

You can't do that.&nbsp Counterweights (front and rear) and stock flywheels needs to match the engine rotors.&nbsp Since you already for the automatic counterweight, all you need is a lightened flywheel - it's the easiest option.
