Long story short: I got Eamonn's Getrag setup from his 760. It's a twin disk quartermaster setup that uses the 60-2 flexplate as a starter ring.
He said the twin disc setup was driveable but not really DD-worthy.
My goal is to replace the flexplate with a flywheel. Naturally I'd like a 8.5 with the holes drilled, but they're not cheap. This will give me the weight to drive the car normally on the street but still have that nice holding ability.
I feel a 2.4 9inch flywheel is probably the cheapest option. Then I'd just stack the quartermaster setup on top of the flywheel. Without those spacers on the flexplate, I'd gamble it isn't much thicker, and there looks to be plenty of room.
So...the question is, if using the 2.4 flywheel as simply a flywheel, will it explode at 7500 rpm? My thought is no, but what do I know?
