get a matching 12v flywheel and your set.

But I have to ask WHY? why put a 1200 cc engine in when its supposed to be a 1600?
unless of course you don't have a good 1600.
But i wouldnt put in a 36'er i'd sell it and get a better engine but thats just me.

i am asking because i just bought a 1300cc engine off of ebay and all i have is a 71 sb trans. so if any one wants to trade engines it would be ok with me

. that is why i am asking.
