Whats wrong with your flywheel?
The A12 ones are lighter.

Sorry, thought it looked like an A series flywheel, couldn't remember how many bolts the old one had.
Bart, Luke's ring gear has about as many remaining teeth as a crack addict from Inglewood and surface cracks in the flywheel, although the clutch itself looks quite new. The starter motor cog is pretty pooned too, hopefully some GC can help him out with some better items.

I have a very tidy standard A12 flywheel.
Sold it on trademe a couple of months back, but the guy was too tight to pay postage, and I was meant to drop off in Chch at some stage to him, but havent been bothered - I am happy for it to go you Luke - and I will chance the bad feedback on trademe.
Just PM me your delivery details and I can send it away to you this week.
Put some pics up of the car as you progress mate
Check out my build thread when you get a chance, as to the panel repair and priming on my car to date

I think you'd be best to get a new starter too, it might be ok you don't want to risk having to pull it all apart again, or damage another ring gear.
