I just replaced my stock flywheel which I had tack welded the ring gear onto.(Because the high torque starter pushed the shrunk on ring gear aft) Everything was fine except my starter switch was sticking in the engage position. I ran the car for 50 miles no problem. The next day I fired it up again but did not notice the switch remained engaged! I ran it for about 3 miles before I heard an ugly grind. Upon inspection I found the ring gear had shifted aft AGAIN about 1/4" , so now the starter won't engage. Since I have to pull the transmission ONE MORE time I want to replace the flywheel with something where the ring gear positively will not move aft. I still want to keep to a steel flywheel 15+ lbs
Any suggestions -sources?
