I know I have read about this somewhere. Flywheel has a couple grooves. The top one can be felt with my fingernail. So what do you folks think?

You're not going to like my response.

If your racing and have upped HP, have a V8 conversion, or something else, that will dictate different parts.

You're overthinking it. Put factory parts in it. Be done with it. It was an engineered system and works just fine when used as intended with stock or near stock motors.

They all are OEM parts. Someone just mixed them up. Maybe on purpose by some slick shop that knew no one would call him on it. Or a PO that didn’t measure or had a “that will work” attitude. It is obvious that they work. Question is: am i losing anything? For some reason VW made it all, what 2.5% bigger in 73 or 74. Why?
