I think the part in question (the flex plate) will have the ring gear for the starter, the torque converter then bolts onto this, It will probably look something like this:

See the wood for the trees

or in this case the crankshaft and the flywheel, if it loads ok you should see a short video of the crank turning with flywheel stationary this is using an endoscope it through the starter hole cannot tell at this stage if it is the bolts sheered or plate broke, what we can say is there were many bell housing bolts missing, radiator had one bolt in it, lots of other bolts loose or missing!!!!, here goes for the video,,, sorry anyone know how to make 2 mb video smaller or maybe we cannot load vid on here, Rick

pop it on youtube. or photobucket.... then link to here or email it to bat and he can add it

thats my thought yes ,

im not commenting on the way forward with the engine, i didnt agree with it when the noise issue started. i didnt agree with the new engine purchase ... and didnt put in to the fund because of that. so its only fair i keep out

the gearbox i did put in , and had a say. and for my money ( quite literally ) the garage that did the gearbox should be sorting out this clutch/flywheel issue now. but as daved says proof would be required

hmmm

 

[briggie]

so on a scale of 1 to 10 ...... 1 being totally foofed ..... whats sallys chances ? :nenau

 

[zippy656]

im sure shell roll again...

 

[solarman216]

Guess so, anyway engine will be out in the morning, not a lot to photograph at the moment, all unbolted, bits off that to be off, ready for the lift, Rick

ok this is a still from the vid crank on the right, flywheel on the left the two are not connected.
