Topic: 7M-GE Clutch/Flywheel on a 22RE

[ccannon222]

Will a flywheel/clutch/preasure plate from a 7M-GE motor work on an 85 22re  W56?  Also, will it work on a 86 turbo 4cyl R151F?  The 7M-GE has a W58 trans.

Thanks

im thinking no

the 7mgte used a pull type clutch,  but then you said 7mge,   so im not sure

look for www.supracharged.com

I think the 5MGE would so i dont see why a 7MGE wouldnt... maybe beefier spline or pressure plate or something.

The splins on the trans and clutch disc are the same.  However I do not know if the flywheel will bolt to the crank.  Or if the clutch/preasure plate will work on the 22re flywheel.  Next weekend I am going to pull the flywheel off of the 22re and compare everything.  Even if they will bolt together, I do not know if the starter teeth will line up right, and if it is heavier or not.

Even if the 7M-GE flywheel (should be same as 5M-GE) and clutch will bolt to a 22R-E crank, and the ring gear OD and 22R-E starter will engage you'll need to have the flywheel balanced to the same specs as the original 22R-E was. You're talking about using a inline six flywheel on a inline 4 engine.

The inline six is as about as smooth a running engine (vibration) design as there is other than a 60 degree V12 or boxer engine (opposed 4 or 6). The inline four is nowhere near as smooth.

I compared the two and the OD is the same, but the starter engagment is different.

why not just use a marlin1200 or 1600 clutch

This issue confuses me because Centerforce lists the same part number for the 7MGE clutch and the 22RTE, while other manufacturers list different numbers. They are both 236mm (9-5/16") and use an input shaft diameter of 1-1/8" with 21 splines. -- Matt

Keep me updated on this. We picked up a 7m-ge this weekend for $300 complete with ENTIRE CAR WIRING HARNESS AND COMPUTER 160K miles and runs beautiful....its going in "toysoldiers" 84 4runner

A 5M/7M flywheel will not bolt to a 22R* motor. The 22R has a symmetric bolt pattern( all the bolt holes are the same distance apart) which means that the flywheel can be bolted on in 6 different position in reference to the crankshaft. The M-series bolt pattern is asymmetric(two of the boltholes are farther apart) which means the flywheel only bolts on one way. Both motors are internally balanced so the orientation on the flywheel doesn'y matter. The 22R-TE motor uses the same clutch and pressure plate as the non-turbo supra (check the ACT website).

Thanks. It took us 30min to pull the engine and 8.5 hrs to get the harness
