Hello Folks- hoping to get some guidance regarding my issue, appreciate the space.
I have a 2000 GT A/T which was totaled in an accident- body shot, engine great. I found a 2002 GT manual which is cherry and has a blown engine. From all I've read on the boards and in asking other Mustang pros in person, it was supposed to be pretty seamless taking my 2000 engine and matching it with the 2002 manual tranny. Hasn't been the case so far- the flywheel bolt pattern is just ever so slightly off (pic attached).
I'm not sure what to do here, I'm pretty bummed and soon to need a running vehicle to get to work. Can anyone tell me why this may be the case, when I've never read this as being an issue? Will I need to have to have a flywheel made for me from a machine shop?
Any guidance you folks can offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Phoo
