FORGED 5EFE...my 4EFE flywheel doesnt fit?!?!?!

[@slug9751]

Was wondering why I'd seen a few people getting custom ones made up. Hope you sort it. Definitely keep the starlet stuff coming 👍

[@Camp_Dogs]

I originally knew that was because the 4efte flywheel had a larger disc on the clutch plate... more surface area for grip in other words. I am completely stumped now as I never had a 5efe flywheel to begin with, but now none of my 4e stuff fits.... however the new flywheel I ordered suits a 4efe, ive already bought them before and used them for 5e haha who knows!!! thanks for watching

[@slug9751]

So strange. Anytime, your channels going to take off with out of the box content like the twin. Be good to see That k series 31 sometime or the little itb'd 82 again 👍

[@andrewrigg4905]

Some N/A 4efe engines came with 4EFTE cranks in them like mine did. Winning !!

[@KR00BIN]

I think the flywheel can simply be redrilled to suit the different hole pattern of the different crank. The center bore will be the same size so that is what will be dictating the balance of the whole rotating assembly. Easy as. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@dav6913]

I uses a 5e Crank and a 5e fly wheel The 5e flywheel can be re faced to accommodate the 4efte 212 mm clutch. I then had the machine shop redrill the 4efte pressure bolt pattern onto the 5e flywheel

[@Camp_Dogs]

Thanks for the info Dave, however I dont really want to re drill any of the clutch components as I plan to rev this thing to almost 9k and over 400whp. I ended up getting a new chromoly flywheel anyway, problem solved 😀

[@peterstoyanov7897]

I'm confused. all I understand is that the 4e na flywheel doesn't fit on the 5e crank and the 5e flywheel doesn't fit it either. But the 4e turbo flywheel fits perfectly

[@TattooTaffy1]

Definitely not a dodgy bros workshop😁

[@Camp_Dogs]

better than those clean workshops that never use the tools :P

[@johannesmenhorn3964]

had the same on mine, just drill the flywheel on the drillpress

[@andrew1977au]

check what model cars the cranks came from...

[@peterstoyanov7897]

It doesn't really matter where it came from cuz they're all the same engine

[@andrew1977au]

@@peterstoyanov7897 in this case it does matter because obviously somethibg is different, I have seen different bolt patterens on the same engines from different models. So yeah its relivent

[@peterstoyanov7897]

@@andrew1977au ok cool

[@madmovements619]

Hey Matt, can I use the 200mm flywheel (4e and 5e n/a) on a turbo 5e? I have a spare 4efte flywheel but the holes don’t match up. So will the smaller 5e flywheel handle power?

[@Richardc9052]

4efte and 4efe crank/fly bolt patterns are the same. Only the 5e is different. The actual friction surface diameter is the same (200mm) between the 4efe and the 5e. The 4efte is 212mm. So. A 4efe clutch kit will fit a 5e flywheel and visa versa but a 4e flywheel, wether Fe or fte won't fit a 5e.

[@andrewrigg4905]

Yes agree with you there.

[@garyreilly2076]

Just drill the flywheel between the 4E stud pattern, plenty of meat, I've done this on all my ORC clutch kits with no issues

[@GsAutos]

I ordered the same flywheel for my build and ran into the same issue. There was enough meat to drill new holes, although it doesn’t quite mesh with starter motor, but still does the job.

[@Camp_Dogs]

what?

[@matthewsutcliffe2348]

I brought the same flywheel and it doesn't fit na cranks, they definitely cocked up there listing.

[@Camp_Dogs]

Yep that's exactly right, but it fits 5e cranks which aren't 4e lol

[@Theeclipseeee]

I don’t understand what the problem is, information is known. 4E(2E) / 5E(3) PCD are different, 4E (NA) - 200 mm working dia, 4EFTE 212 mm. 5EFE - 200 mm but 4WD version 5EFE and old 3E - 212 mm. If you check AASCO web site you will see 200 mm and 212 mm version flywheel for 5E engine.

[@Theeclipseeee]

@@OgierAU Invalid information. Any 3E with a 212 mm flywheel and 4E version 5E with a 212 mm flywheel. I have a 212 mm flywheel with a 3E carburetor from Carina VAN ET176V

Can i request the Hammond be featured on this channel more often? KTHXBAI.

[@jayramirez3646]

Awesome content, one question does the 5efe have a forged crank from the factory

[@Camp_Dogs]

Hi Jay thanks! Only The 5efhe version has the forged crank.

[@jayramirez3646]

Thanks for the quick reply , do you happen to know what the max rpm/hp is for the cast 5efe crank?

[@Camp_Dogs]

@@jayramirez3646 I've been turning mine to 8250 on 28psi. She Loves it 🤣

[@Camp_Dogs]

Not much point revving any harder than that on a stock gearbox, they hate shifting at that rpm as it is...

[@jayramirez3646]

Impressive! Negotiating a deal on a manual paseo right now cant wait to build it up!

[@andrew1977au]

dont drill the crank

[@Camp_Dogs]

haven't you seen bush mechanics, was filmed up here haha ive got a new flywheel coming
