    No! You have to use to festy flywheel. Explain how the Suzuki flywheel would bolt to the Mazda engine?

      Wasn't sure if the flywheel has the same bolt pattern or not. Thought you might have tried the flywheel too.

        He says that the swift flywheel is 8 inches and the festy is 7.125. It would never fit.

          Hence my misunderstanding with the grinding of the bellhousing.. All good.

            Probably have to grind the bell housing to fit the larger clutch.

              ^Yes.

              Machine Festy flywheel flat, do some other things that I can't remember to mate the swift clutch to it, then grind the bellhousing so the clutch PP doesn't hit it.

              Or just buy a SPEC stage 2 and bolt it on and grind nothing. Mine was about $200 delivered from eBay. Still haven't gotten to start it up yet, though.
              Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

                Gotta be careful with those harder clutches, they make it a lot easier to destroy the E trans.

                  True. I do have a couple extras, though I will be careful, and if need be fill mounts. I'll also have poly bushings on everything up front, so that should help.

                      The F3a is stronger than the stock 5 speed by far.

                      Theres a few auto cars with swapped engines on here including mine and it holds up fine. I will hopefully be feeding mine 250+ hp this year.

                            Most likely. The auto is a lot stronger but nothing is bullet proof. A trans cooler should be used any time you're pushing it hard.
