Flywheel/Clutch install
I am swapping from a auto to a 4 speed, so this stuff is kinda new to me...
The bearing went in perfect, so the next step is the flywheel and clutch.
* The flywheel is an (Butlers) aftermarket SFI, however, it's kinda smooth on both sides. It install's with the ring gear towards the block? Smooth (heavy) side towards the tranny, do I need to check for spacing out? Mr. Gasket bolt kit. Does it only bolt on one way like a flexplate?
* The flywheel is covered with oil/grease from shipping, clean all this off before installing it? Both sides? with Brakleen?
* Is there a certain way to tighten down the bolt's? Crossway's? Circular motion? 95lb's torque. Step it up, or O.K. to crank down at one time. Then locktight.
* I have an old input shaft for centering the clutch. I have a bolt kit for this also. Torque for these bolt's? Centerforce DF clutch.
I got no directions with anything, as the clutch I got from someone here, new.
Any other tips I might need? There alway's is....I am just learning as I go.

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
