How bad is the crack? I wouldn't be surprised to find half the Model A's with at least a small crack in the housing. I think it would be OK, and the way we drive today, it should outlive us. That said, I still look for no cracks, but they are getting hard to find.

I did a search on this subject and ran across theory that the shims were not necessarily needed between the top of the housing and the engine block, if a gasket was not used. I don't have a magnetic mount gauge to check the run out, so I was going to fab a fixed mount kind of tool and use a feeler gauge. I have kind of an idea for this in my head, that I can bolt this tool to the flywheel, and I could...

by spencerj13My 1931 flywheel housing was cracked so I welded it. I can not get the flywheel to flywheel housing difference to less than .005. The greatest difference is .016. Do I need to replace the flywheel housing or is this measurement not extremely important? I have already have two shims in the top bolts....

by JDupuisToday I painted a flywheel housing for a motor I'm building.
Thought I'd share, where I do and don't apply paint.
The unpainted areas are for better grounding with our Positive 6v ground.
Hope this helps.

by JDupuisPosted here is a typical flywheel housing that is cracked.
I am posting this picture for the benefit of all.
Remember to loosen the rear the rear mounting bolts when lifting the front of the engine, as this may be the result.
I am editing this post....Very Important!.
This cracking is also caused by “not” placing shims between the flywheel housing and the block, where the...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

by Tim WarrenI am FINALLY reinstalling my rebuilt engine. Engine in; drivetrain/tanny all in. There is no way to fit the shims that fit at the throttle linkage. The housings are totally mated. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

by OTTAWAEDWhat is the correct factory distance between the flywheel face and the clutch cover plate mounting surface. Brattons states 1.123 in in their catalogue. I measured 1.179 on an old flywheel which, of course may have been altered. Ed

by DaWizardOk, after doing an extensive site search, I have come up blank, so asking here.
I need some type of a drawing with dimensions to give to my machinist with the lightened flywheel profile. Everyone says "lighten the flywheel" but I can't find a drawing to dictate where and how much meat to remove.
Thrill me and produce me a picture I can copy and print for the machinist....-
