Cool flywheel design gs400

working on a custom flywheel for the 1uzfe,2uzfe and the 3uzfe motors to adapt a t-56 to it using a mustang clutch so it will be cheaper then the options out there. i was wandering if anyone had the mustang pressure plate bolt pattern. so i dont have to go buy one to finish my design. and using a nice 10.5 inch clutch should hold the hp better then the 9 inch supra clutches and make it easier to find a disc for the 26 spline input shaft. what do you guys think how many people would swap to a manuel if it was cheaper to do?

yea these autos just dont do them justice i think this flywheel would open alot of options you would use a mustang pressure plate then any 10.5 friction plate from ford,chevy,mopar even toyota just need to find time to go down to clutch masters and get the info i need to finish seeing how there right down the street form me.
