2008 Chevrolet Corvette Flywheel Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to Properly Replace an Engine Flywheel on 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: The replacement procedure for engine Flywheel involves catalytic converters removal alongside a spacemaking operation on driveline support for automatic transmission vehicles and clutch assembly removal for manual transmissions. The operation requires marking the Crankshaft end and the manual transmission Flywheel because the Flywheel lacks a locating pin during alignment. The engine Flywheel extraction process involves removing engine Flywheel bolts first then accomplishing the same process for manual transmission Flywheel bolts before removing the engine Flywheel. During installation align moored points on the Crankshaft with those on the Flywheel before installing the engine Flywheel. Introduce threadlocker to the Flywheel bolt threads before installations that require a torque sequence of 20 n.m (15 lb ft) then 50 n.m (37 lb ft) and ending with 100 n.m (74 lb ft). Reinstallation moves from the driveline support to the clutch assembly in case of manual transmissions to conclude with Catalytic Converter installation. Leave the prop shaft hub and flex plate undisturbed on the automatic transmission engine Flywheel because they operate as a balanced unit which requires whole replacement if any service work is necessary.
