5SFE and 3SGTE flywheels, Are they the same? Options

[WannabeGT4]

I've been busy lately but this is what I'm going to give to the person that does the machine work.
Measurements in white are what I got from the 5S flexplate. Measurements in red are what the flexplate needs to be in order to bolt up to the 3SGTE. I started to put the measurements in from what I assumed to be a 5S flywhwheel but that made things really messy looking. I'll make a seperate drawing for that.

[WannabeGT4]

Absolutely.

so questions if im using the 5sfe tranny for the 3sgte swap i use th 3sgte flyweel and plates and 5sfe disc correct?

[WannabeGT4]

Yeah, you'll need the 3S flywheel and pressure plate and either a 5S disk or a custom 3S disk with splines to match the S54 transmission.

I forgot to upload the 5SFE Flywheel measurements but here they are now. If someone can measure theirs to compare that'd be great.

okay quick question, because i've been considering doing the st205 motor swap..and i've been acknowledged that in order to use the 5s tranny with the 3s motor, you need the 3s pressure plate and flywheel....well i've got an aftermarket clutch kit (disc, pressure plate), do i still have to switch to the 3s pressure plate?

just realized that the last post was a freakin year ago--oh jeebus.
