I was thinking if you found a low mileage rear ended car the flywheel might be salvageable lol

Well yeah, but when taking apart a clutch/flywheel, and use a new clutch on a say, 30k mile flywheel, its ideal to get new. Or resurface the flywheel, but GM doesn't recommend doing that. They flywheels are basically one time use unfortunately,
And i doubt ill find a g6 low mileage, my flywheel had 38k on it before second gear synchronizer gave out. Its just not ideal to reuse a flywheel with a new clutch, you have to atleast clean the flywheel surface up before throwing it all together, if you dont and the surface isnt level, smooth and clean. You can end up having terrible clutch slippage, despite having a new clutch in there.

Pulled the rack out of the car, going to replace it while its easier to do. Now i have to add sway bar end links to the list, mine Are fried.
Anywho, flywheel will be available tomorrow. May also get a new rack tomorrow (money permitting) and if i do get the rack, the motor should be able to go back in! Fingers crossed! If i get the rack, i plan on having the motor in this weekend.

Detroit axle through ebay was the best I found when I did mine. I got a rebuilt unit and they pay shipping to send yours back. Havent had an complaints thus far. New units get pricey real quick.

and rock auto! How do you get to the sway bar bushings? since you are in there, I'm replacing them when the car is in the air doing my suspension. I feel like I remember them up by the rack and pinion maybe?? I need to find my end links again to...

They are connected basically on the center of the lower control arm. 13mm nut on top, 13mm bolt head on bottom. (Atleast for stock end links) and of course, hold the ends of the sway bar to the LCA's. You cant miss em.
Ill probably upgrade to poly ones, by energy suspension.
rock auto is fine too, but some name brands that are super cheap i dont care to use, but SOMETIMES i can beat rock auto prices with my own discounts
Edit: oh sorry, sway bar bushings... Those are tough, basically go in near the down pipe tunnel, a 15mm shorty wrench is your beat friend for this. One on each side of the sway bar bolted to the sub frame. They are a pain with the motor in it.... Then there are "shoes" i want to call it, that snug around the bushing itself, one side has a bolt that goes on it (the 15mm you have to remove), other side has a tab that goes into a slot on the sub frame, super PITA to get it all back together...

Very!
So excited to get that part.... It's unbelievable.
Well, good news! Everything is here to put new trans on the motor, and i just got done installing my new rack and pinion, so car is ready for the motor and trans to go in tomorrow hopefully.
Of course i still need all fluids, and headers to start the car. So that will be a minute.
I had to half way remove the sway bar to install the rack, so now i need to add some things to my replacement list....
Getting movitech sway bar end links (they are light blue!) if no one knows by now, i love light blue lol. But movitech is also a pretty good brand i can live with, and they are 6$ each on rockauto. So cant beat it.
Rack needs outer tie rods, so going with MOOG outers.
Also noticed my lower control arm bushings look terrible, so going to replace both LCA's with MOOG replacements, comes with ball joints and bushings pre installed, also from rock auto. But yeah. I also got in a fight with my giant ratchet wrench tonight, busted nose, and both upper and lower lips busted.  but ill survive!

We have a machine shop here that will machine dual mass fly wheels... we have used them after he machined them and never had any problems!
I recommend the energy suspension control arm bushings, that way you do not have to do them again! I have been running them in my grand am for the 3+ years / 40,000kms with no problems! And they where only like $40 for the kit at the time!

Yeah the energy ones are always nice too! No one here could service that flywheel for me sadly.

Nate if you and Scott can work out a deal it might be beneficial to ship him your old one to be machined here and ship it back.... then you have an extra... all depends on the cost of course....
