Does anyone know where to purchase a good set of stock-length flywheel dowels? My crank/flywheel is 8 doweled but the dowels that I have appear to be just poorly made. Some fit, some don't. And I don't want to drill anything to fit either the oversized dowels or longer-than-stock ones. The crank/flywheel has very little miles on them, so they aren't worn yet.

This is for a mild 1776cc in a Squareback and the flywheel is lightened with a counter-weighed crank and entirely balanced. If that matters. Smile

Thanks!

A local machine shop should have various sizes.

Wow, not sure how I missed those. That's what I needed. I came across some on other sites, but I questioned the quality of them.


Thanks!
