Flywheel for MT conversion

[wantazee]

What flywheel will work on my 83 2.8 ZX Engine from a 2+2 in a 76? Do I need to use a 2+2 flywheel or can I use a regular coupe flywheel?

Use either flywheel, but get the matching clutch. I'm trying to find the different sizes for you right now. I found a good thread by searching for "Flywheel Differences". You could go there and read it.

I keep finding references to 225mm and 240mm. The 2+2 being the larger one.

You will need to make sure you get the correct combination of release bearing and release arm for the setup you're using to. Again, a search of the forums will help you a bunch.

I converted a 81 turbo to 5 speed manual using a standard flywheel clutch and it works okay slips a little in first if you really drop the hammer so I'm thinking you could use either the 2+2 or standard. I'm going to put in a 2+2 flywheel and clutch when I get ambitious. I believe that clutch is big enough to handle the turbo HP.
