Default do i need to resurface my flywheel if I.................?

Well, here's the situation, I'm swapping in an h22 but I want to
use my centerforce clutch from my old h23 if the disc is still meaty enough.
If I bolt my old clutch to the h22 flywheel, will I have to resurface it?
If so, I might just use the h23 flywheel if it will bolt up. I mean hell, my
h23 flywheel is already lightened, maybe i'll just use it.

What do you guys suggest?

I would just use the H23 flywheel. H22 and H23 flywheels are EXACTLY the same.

If you mate the used clutch to a flywheel other than the one it was mated to before, you should resurface it.

Awesome

i'll definately go this way if the clutch is in good shape

one other question, do i have to take off the flywheel to get

to the rear main seal anyway? I figured I should change this while the

engine is out. Sorry, I haven't studied up on the almighty

Helms enough yet

Yep, the flywheel will have to come off.

****, when you can't read or think straight, I'd say it's not overrated! I just am too used to sleeping 12 hours a day, I can't handle getting little sleep..........yet I can't sleep!

Blah, if only I hadn't gotten sick from it the other night, I'd drink myself to sleep!

you're like a big bear "swingers"

another question, in the helms it says you have to use a
couple special tools like a clutch alignment disc, ring gear holder,
clutch alignment shaft, and a handle. Can I get by with just
an alignment tool that fits my clutch?

the ring gear holder keeps the flywheel from turning while loosening/tightening the bolts.

a screwdriver and/or some vice grips will work too.

yeah just put one of the tranny bolts back onto the block, then use a piece of wood, or a big screwdrive or something to hold the flywheel from turning when u TQ the bolts.

as far as the alignment tool goes, its easy with one, but u can get away without one, just use a ratch handle or screwdriver handle or something, whatever fits and keeps the disc centered while u bolt down the pressure plate is good,
