    flywheel

    Between 69 and 70 and newer flywheel changed from push to pull type. Mag cases had a wide release piviot area because they used both push and pull. But it is no small job. I've seen it done but I think gearbox needs to be disassembled. Not a big demand because available clutches in both styles are pretty good. Gordon

    Thank you Gordon: I have a lead on a NOS early S VW type fly wheel with the copper coating ; just curious if I end up with greater power than stock, if this one would be good enough...190-200 hp for the street! Once again thank you,Cliff
