Northstar rebuild: Will style (Page 40/119)

Im selling my QM twin disk setup with button flywheel... too bad its for the 4sp
Will NOV 18, 08:31 PM
I was planning to build a button flywheel anyway.

I also don't know enough about the differences in clearances between the 282 bellhousing and the Muncie bellhousing... I'm pretty sure I can pack a Tilton setup into a 282 bellhousing, but it ends up TIGHT.

How long have you been selling that?

I love the setup...wish I could keep it, because its so badass/rare. What really sucks is that more likely than not,nobody is going to pay what it is worth.

I tried selling it once before awhile back. No bites then, and no bites now. ugh.

Awesome build by the way!

I'll take it under advisement. Send me an email at my profile address with the QM part numbers. I need to look up their design drawings. Got a closer pic of the flywheel? Did you make it yourself?

With Tilton components, the stack height of a triple disk sintered iron clutch is the same as a double disk cerametallic or organic... not that the triple is even remotely necessary, as the two disk cerametallic with a soft spring was rated for 550 ftlbs. The triple would just be harder to modulate than the double.

I need to get so more pictures at some point, its on the motor/tranny right now so it will be a few days until I can yank it apart. Anything in particular you wanted pictures of? Flywheel is a QM unit as well.

With the QM unit, the stack height is a good bit different from a twin to triple. I don't recall exactly how much, but with the twin, I use a different housing and just take a floater out and the center disk.

email sent.

Can you clarify that? Thanks.

I've got all the parts to put the short block together now. I'm probably not going to have time until early next year.

Can this be moved over to "The Construction Zone"?

Only if you post pictures of you assembling the engine.
Will FEB 25, 09:49 AM
We'll see about that. I may just turn all the parts into modern art.
