I had never done it before.
My understanding is "JUST" (sounds simple...) taking off the tranny,
un-tide the nuts & bolts,
Taking the flywheel off,
put the new flywheelon,
tide up the nuts& bolts w/ touque as per repair manual,
and... that's it?
Any special tricks or skills?
Or any other things I missed or need to get more attention?
Thanks!:thumbsup:

That pretty much sums it up.
yep thats about it . dont forget to clean the flywheel when yor done to get any grease off of it..but you make it seem like its a 10 minute job it will take you a while to get the tranny out . esp if you have never done one

Yep. Pick up several cans, because you are in for a shock once you see the inside of the bellhousing.

Did you do the flywheel install?

Not yet but very soon.
Anything alright, or I'll need to pay some cautions about certain matter?
how do you prevent the flywheel from spinning when taking off the bolts?

I use the Honda crank pulley tool to hold the crank. You can either wedge it against something (less preferred) or have a second person hold it for you (preferred). Same deal while re-torquing.

Yeah, I know. I'm at 4.30 and will probably go down to 4.00 when I have the tranny rebuilt. I agree with you, however: If it were a track-only car, you need gears that low. Good luck.
