Crank/Flywheel Spacers
I am ready to put my machined flywheel on my rebuilt 2.0 for my '74 914 and I realize that I do not have the 3 spacers to ensure that endplay is within specs. There has been no mods or work other than polishing on the crank and no work needed on the case, so the standard thicknesses should be good (2 thick, 1 thinner). Anyone have a set they will sell me... email is porsche914man@hotmail.com
Thanks, Brad

Actually you really want to bolt up the flywheel and measure specifically the amount of end play. Then get the appropriate thickness washers to bring you into spec. P.S. Sorry I don't have any spares

Yeah you really want to make sure of that. My crank was moving about way too much after the rebuild even with the same old spacers. And you don't want that I'm sure. Actually the crankshaft end play is what made me have to rebuild my engine.
