next time, just search before you ask a question.

This was right in the archives

That should be all the information you need.

If using stock flywheel, use one from the SAME SERIES as your engine (s4, s5) and SAME SERIES transmission (n/a, TII).

If using aftermarket flywheel, keep the AUTOMATIC COUNTERWEIGHT. Bolt aftermarket flywheel to the counterweight.
