FYI I just checked Car-Parts.com. they list over 20 F40 Saab transmissions from cars with 2.8 l V6 engines.

Finally done building a shop so the real work in the LFX/F40 swap begins. I did a test fit of the flywheel/clutch/transmission to the engine. All seemed to go ok, but I have a question that I hope someone will have an opinion about. How many bell housing bolts are required for the transaxle to be sufficiently attached to the engine? I can easily get 8 bolts, but more than that will be a bit of a pain in the butt. The bolts along the bottom are the ones that are problematic..
Thanks,
Daryl

Hi all,
I need to pick the community brain. The LFX engine I am in the process of putting in my 88 has a motor mount/jack shaft bearing carrier that came on the 2013 Impala donor car. With the f40 manual tranny attached, the jackshaft is about 10mm lower than it was with the automatic from the impala. My question is if anyone knows if there is a mount that would fit my application? I realize it may be a long shot but if a mount exists, I would rather do that than build one.
Thanks
Daryl

Do you have a picture? You're using the Saab f40, correct? Saab flywheel and clutch? I ask because I'm very interested in swap and may follow in your footsteps... or 2.0T ecotec...[This message has been edited by arbakken (edited 10-19-2018).]

Engine man, some days I am just not paying attention. I forgot that the jackshaft I got was from a 4 cylinder. It came with a jackshaft support that was not also a motor mount. I don't know if the 2.8 turbo has what I need or not. Worth a check though.

Arbakken, yes I am using the Saab clutch with a solid flywheel.

What did the flywheel come out of?
