i have a 1991 model year 3300 out of a cutlass ciera. it has the attatched engine wiring, bracketry and transmission, which i have been told is a 4 speed automatic. (4T60) now, i would like to put a manual transmission on this bad boy and i don't know what to do for a flywheel. west coast fiero sells flywheels for the 3800 and 3800 series II, but i dunno which one to get or if they will even work. can anyone help me out with this??? if i cant get a flywheel for something around 300 bux i will just use the automatic 4 speed (since thats what my car is currently set up for). i will prolly use a nice grippy clutch that the fiero v8 boys use, so thats not a problem.

btw, heres the link to westcoastfiero's flywheels....

didint think it would... i sat down with a tranny guy for 2 hours trying different fly wheels .. with no avail... seriously .. you have to get 1 custome built. your 2 options.. #1: get a new 1 made at the machine shop. big $$$$$ but proper #2: get a fly wheel from a cavalear. take it with your old 3300 auto fly wheel and get holes drilled in to it to match your auto fly wheel. after .. make sure you get the drilled flywheel down to get balanced

The best way to go is to put a cadillac 4.9 engine in, it has more horsepower and torque.
