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:

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.
