I used an inner stud/nut from an old cone seat truck wheel.

Tweak has the original waterpump from the Xr2 donor car that had like 160K on it. It's an original Mazda pump with the cast impeller, which I prefer, havn't had a problem, also reused the oil pump off the GTX engine but I shimmed the bypass spring. plenty of pressure!Originally posted by gauge_half_inch View PostDriving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.

Swapping all the carb stuff onto the donor. Definitely dropped a plastic straw (spray can style) in the #1 cylinder trying to find TDC.
First solution google gave me:

Think I'll just wrap everything in plastic and call it a day...
*Flywheel on donor engine is rusty from exposure. Should I swap the old one in?

If you plan on reusing the clutch, swap the flywheel along with it. They're wear mated already. If replacing the clutch, use either but be sure to at least sand the clutch mating portion to remove the glaze. Surface rust elsewhere on the donor flywheel can be removed with a wire brush. It doesn't have to be perfect as long as the clutch surface is clean and nothing is in the way of seating the pressure plate.Originally posted by purg3d View Post*Flywheel on donor engine is rusty from exposure.

Why you gotta make more work for me? Looks like I'll be removing pulleys this weekend to check them out and clean or replace them.Originally posted by lulu View Post

Huh, two posts ago was SUPPOSED to be a tapatalk pic of my new LED turn signal lights for the rear blinkers. As I burn out bulbs, I will be upgrading to LED, to spread out the cost. $16 at AZ compared to the 10 I usually pay for the Sylvania high output ones...Good deal, they work well, and bright.Contact me for information about Festiva Madness!

Here we go:
Installed carb/intake manifold, distributor, fuel pump and alternator on the donor engine.
Swapped over the clutch. Didn't have a Clutch Alignment Tool, so I thought I could eyeball it.
That just isn't a good tactic when the transmission is still in the car.
I tried every angle, but for the life of me could not get it to slide on(in?) to the input shaft.
Waiting on my tool, then I'll try try again.:help:Comment
