But you should know that those are prone to cracking, and I had a catastrophic failure of one.  They were never designed to carry the output load of the engine, just as a way to engage the starter.  Tracey published a revision in the archives, or you can convert a manual fly wheel to work.  I suggest lightweight aftermarket versions.

Can anyone confirm which flex plate fits the RWS redrive?  I believe it comes from a 92 model RX7. But is it from an automatic, manual or turbo model?  All are different apparently.

Thanks  Neil.
