THESE ARE IN NO ORDER I do apologize for that but limited time with computer access.

clutch
these are cheap on ebay
I have to get a custom button flywheel made
and buy some disc with audi's spline(tilton)
all that is still cheaper then what ive found for the price of the flywheel to fit the 8-bolt 4.2l 40v crank and a clutch.

Ok finally got my lathe( lol lathes.... You know how when you hear a new word then all of a sudden you hear it often. Well I could not for the life of me find a big enough lathe for my custom flywheel at a good price. I was being cheap, then kept finding these things aren't cheap. So I kept upping my price still to no avail. Until last month found one on acceleratedbuysell.com. A 24N model monarch :-) 36" swing for a great price $1700 bought it and while up there also acquired a Rockland 19” for $350 smh and while buying tooling for them was sold a craftsman 6" for $40!! Lol yeah crazy, couldn't find one now I got too many.)
So now I can start back with this project. Well not exactly gotta convert to single phase or get 3 phase power. Surplus gov generator still run high so I'm thinking the former. But we'll see.
PS I figured a way to adjust the CPS correctly while learning about turning and milling. Use a dividing head. That will give me exact 360 increments.
Monarch 36.5" swing smh
