volvo to BW velvet drive
 
Hi Guys does any one know if the Volvo TAMD 63L/P will bolt to a velvet drive?

If so what parts are required?

You need a flywheel housing adapter and dampener for Velvet Drive. I think the TAMD63 is SAE 3, but not positive.

I would not run the stock Velvet Drive, It would need to be upgraded to handle the torque of that engine.

oh i see would it have more torque than my offshore 454?

i thought i was going down in power seems like i was a bit off the mark.

the engine comes with a ZF 220A but i dont think that will hook up to the TRS

I'd try to find a BAM 1350 (modified VD) that should work for you. The ZF is a great trans but as you know, it wont work for a TRS application.
