Does anyone have any recommendations on how to hold this in place when tightening the nut to 110 ftlbs? I did this once and I believe it was too tight. Think I may have ruined the flywheel. Any advice?

 

the flywheel is fragile,,,be careful

are you having problems with the engine rotating rather than the nut tightening

if so,,,put it in gear and stand on the brake as you tighten (or summon someone else to do it for you while you tighten)

 

Well I got it installed and torqued to what I thought was 110ftlbs, and started it. All I heard was grinding. Disassembled and turns out the inner part of the flywheel was rubbing on the round circular magnet thingy (not sure what its called)

 

oh dude,,,thats not good

bent flywheel
damaged stator

both expensive items

how bad is it??
