Clair,

Thanks for the contact info on the AX15 bearing retainer. The hemi flywheel uses an 8 bolt flange on the crank so it is quite different from the LA engine. It is good to know that the Dakota PP will bolt up to my flywheel, I just need to verify the dimension you can hopefully get for me, the only other thing it could be is the distance the face of the flywheel is from the surface on the engine block where the bell housing bolts to, if you could get me that dimension also it would be helpful.

Thanks,

Nebo




I got tied up with family stuff after the plumbing situation got resolved yesterday, so I'll try to get out to the garage tonight for those dimensions.

On the G3 Hemi bolt pattern, do you know if it's the same as the G2 Hemi, or is it the same as the 3.7L/4.7L new engines? I'm just WAG'ing the "fact" that the 3.7 and 4.7 are the same, BTW, but I know that the 3.7 IS 8-bolt, and is also smaller DIA than the 6-bolt LA/B/RB bolt pattern. Strange.
