Hi, I am doing a 1uz swap with the R150 and have decided to go with the ks racing bellhousing to stick them together. They also sell their flywheel for $170. That is about the same or less than it would cost to have my flywheel modified. The problem is that I know others have bought the complete kit and had trouble finding a replacement clutch. It takes a 10.5" clutch, but does anyone know what clutchs will work with it? Will a marlin crawler clutch for the 3vze or maybe 5vze bolt up? or maybe a chevy 10.4"? Thanks

I believe their flywheel is from an overseas diesel application.

This is why I chose to get my own flywheel made.

Oh, so it would'nt fit the 1uzfe? On ebay it is sold with the R150 to 1uzfe bellhousing so I thought it would work. It would be simpler and easier than having mine machined, but if theirs needs modifications also...

It's for the 1uz, I just meant that it uses a clutch from a diesel engine that isn't sold in the us.

NorthIdahoyota

Oh alright, thanks. That would make it kind of a pain then.

I did email the company last night asking what clutch to use, so if they reply I'll post up their answer

No answer from KS, guess I'll just get the bellhousing and make my 3vze flywheel fit

Someone here had LC Engineering make a custom flywheel to use either the 3vz or 5vz clutch on their 1uz conversion(can't remember which) but the price wasn't all that outrageous.

I called them several times and when I finally got someone to get back to me, they said it would cost way too much to be worth it. I even asked the guy about if they could do it when the next run of the 3/5vz FW's were made and he said the price would be the same. Basically LCE didn't sound like they wanted to do it again. The 1uzswapkits FW is a pretty good price and not that bad on shipping either.

While I know this is an old thread, I'll pipe in here since it pops up on googl. I have the KS bellhousing kit. The clutch disk is Aisin part number 31250-36113. It's off of a 3B diesel from the Land Cruiser (50/60/70 series).

Also I think Akina's kit is the exact same as KS. They are equally unresponsive.

I have done two with the 1UZFEswapkits kit and not had any problems! Clutch has held well!
