flywheel to engine question

[fasteclipse1992]

ill be doin an engine swap soon from 1.8 to 2.0 turbo and my question is... i just bought a stock 91 6 bolt flywheel 2.0 non turbo and the engine is a 92 2.0 turbo that originally had a automatic tranny. now the flywheel i got i bought from a salvage yard so i assume it is a 91 talon 2.0 non turbo flywheel as the guy stated it is. the crankshaft on the engine sticks out about 3/8 of an inch and the center hole in the flywheel is too small to fit it. is there shims that go between the flywheel and crank like there was on the automatics flexplate or can the center hole be drilled out larger to fit it?

here a pic of a crank that looks like the center shaft was removed from it and does not extend 3/8 of an inch out from the center

The flywheel you show in the picture is for a turbo car. See the steps or raised blocks around the flywheel? That is what differentiates a turbo from a non-turbo flywheel.

yea i know that flywheel is a turbo flywheel, i was usin the pic for a reference to the crank. my crank had some sorta bushing inserted into the end of it, apparently for auto trannys where the torque converter goes into it. i pryed it out with vice grips. i woulda croped the pic but every time i did it made the pic like 1000% larger so i said forget it and posted entire pic. (i suck at photoshop, even the simple basic editing)
