HELP Flywheel/6bolt problems!!!

[Fayt]

Alright, so far it has taken 2 1/2 months to do a motor swap. I would of gotten it back today, but ran into another problem. The shop was putting the flywheel on, and it is 1/2" bigger then my 7 bolt, and won't fit in the transmission housing. Is this normal? When I bought the motor, they didn't know if it was an AWD or FWD flywheel.... could it be a FWD flywheel on the motor, and thats why it wont bolt up right?

This damn motor has been problem after problem, and now this -.- It sucks having a car for 5 months, and not being able to drive it for more then half I shouldnt need a new tranny, right? I just dont have that money at all right now!

:sigh: any ideas if thats whats wrong?

I can remember some sort of differences between the flywheels... I would check the 6 bolt AWD flywheel to see if that works. I do know that the 6 bolt and 7 bolt flywheels do have different part numbers. So check that out..

I realize that. Thats why I am asking, could it be that I have a FWD flywheel, and thats why it wont fit into the transmission housing?
