Need F10A flywheel - desperate!

Hi Everyone,

I broke a bolt off in my F10A flywheel and then made a mess of the thread.

I really don't want to helicoil it. I would really rather replace it given how important it will be to have a decent grip on those bolts will be.

Does anyone have a spare F10A flywheel? or an old F10A engine they want to part with for cheap? (I would love a spare engine to test some ideas for a carb->efi conversion i have)

Thank you

Sorry I should mention I'm located in Brisbane.

Thanks again.

Just take it to your local machine shop and get it tapped out for the next size bolt...
I'd imagine they would be M8, get them to take them out to M10, buy some new bolts and drill out the pressure plate to suit. :wink:
Just make sure the heads dont foul on the pressure plate.

My 2 cents... what i would do anyway.

hey buddy, you might need to post up the link/picture again

i was going to send him one from a carry F10A, but turns out the fly wheels are different between vehicles.
