WANTED. 166 V6 3.0 solid flywheel and clutch

**NoCorseChris** · 10-04-2015, 18:04

As per title. Tried to do this in Buy & Sell but it only seems to support 'Sell'??

Anyhoo, I'm in the throws of preparing for another build, although not a Strat this time is is going to be 166 V6 powered. This time round, it's going to be as cheap as I can possibly manage, stock everything as far as possible. No gratuitous engine rebuilds, no superchargers, no aftermarket ECU, no A/C (or even carpets).

Chris now it supports Wanted as well.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Many thanks Ian. I'd spotted a few 'wanteds' in the forum section so put mine there after failing in the B&S but confess it didn't feel quite right. What I should of done of course would have been to contact you and ask! Apologies for not doing that.

Cheers
Chris

Chris
If it's a 166 dual mass flywheel and clutch you're after, I have one sat on my garage floor.
Let me know.
Cheers Nick

I have a 164 24V flywheel at home, that should work...

Thanks chaps.

Nick, thank you, but I was wanting to get away from the DMF as well! Nothing fundamentally wrong with them I don't think in that they work, just that they are so damn expensive to replace. The donor I am buying is probably close to wanting a new DMF I'd guess, so I figured going solid would be the thing to do. If the DMF setup you have is in good condition though, i could be tempted if it's cheap?

Neil, I suspected you might have something in stock, hence the email, but you know me and my impatience

A thought, the 164 FW won't have the crank trigger teeth on it will it. Is it possible to transfer the bits from a DMF to a plain FW? I don't want to get into swapping the front cover/pulley etc, this needs to stay stock....

The 164 flywheel I have dosent have the trigger wheel incorporated, IIRC its a bolt on part, that fits in a recess in the DMF flywheel, so the flywheel I have would need some machining to fit the trigger wheel.... cant be 100% sure though as I am a good few thousand miles away from the flywheel at present

. Spare DMF flywheel might be the way to go, especially as you ar enot after out and out performance!
