ok so im new to just about every aspect of the game so im not exactly how stupid i sound or how much trouble i could be in...

anyhow, i noticed that when i jack up my car that the flywheel is clearly visible from under the car. it hangs a good 2 inches lower than the oil pan hangs from the block. to clarify, the trans hangs a bit lower the block, its not a flush mount and the flywheel is clearly visible.

i have a b16 swap with a y1 tranny in my crx if that makes any diffrence... i bought the car like thatand didnt notice until today.

i dont drive the car much and realize that this could be potentially fatal for my engine but i was just curious as to what some more expirianced people might have to say

thanks

 

There is supposed to be a sheet metal plate that bolts over the gap there. As far as covering it, I personally would. It's one of those "you never know" things.

Welcome to Honda-Tech!

 

Call your local honda dealer and get a flywheel cover. They are $25 and easy to install.

oh and thanks for the welcome!

 

thats true but I've drivin alot of motors without it and they've never run into problems but I guess if I ever did thats my fault... alot of people I know don't really worry about it... but you never know
