I didn't mean any offence, I was just trying to save him time in the future, I used to do the same thing (skim the instructions and try to figure it out) but it will really cost you more time in the long run, plus a lot of frustration. Just trying to give a helpfull peice of advice that took me a long while to learn. And by the way ****** that night I had quite a few beers for you.

One question, ive been hearing since my Slot is not lined up with the C, that the key needs to be replaced. well i bought a flywheel. its stil on its way. does it come with the key? or is it like attacheed to the flywheel. itd really suck if i needed to buy something else seeing as parts take a week to get. I orderd a flywheel and puller from blackwidow, hope this is all ineed to fix!

If it was the flywheel that spun the key should be fine.

...Be prepared to inspect behind flywheel for any oil oozing from that seal behind the stator. Ideally, no oil should be reaching the flywheel hub, or pooled below (hard to see in your pictures). If it's leaking, you can yank the stock 7mm seal to replace with a 5mm and backer, to assure that Both seal-lips are squeezing the shaft.
Flywheel torque is 35 ft-lbs, per a recent thread discussion.

I couldnt find a threadon it exactly. Well i see no problems withme asking questions in one thread, least im not making a thread for each post. lol. where can i get the seal if i need one? Or do i need to order it from black widow or haydug. hopefully if i need it its a common thing i can buy anywhere
thanks though for the ft lbs
