Automatic engines are fitted with 'flexi plates' instead of a flywheel, so therefore a flywheel from a manual vehicle will be required.
The Rover P6 and MGB GT are ideal engines to source due to their higher compression, short water pump and associated pulleys, along with snug fitting exhaust manifolds.
It should be noted that this engine conversion has a dramatic increase of torque over the standard engines and therefore care should be taken with the use of the vehicle to retain the reliability of the transmission and the benefits of the conversion. Conversion & Precision Engineering Ltd cannot accept any responsibility for damage, if any, caused to the transmission as a result of this conversion. |
