Flywheel help needed
I have a Gen VI big block that was not originally intended for a Mercruiser application and the ring gear on the flywheel is mounted toward the front of the flywheel- I assume for a front mounted starter. I'm now using it with a bellhousing that has a rear mounted starter. I guess this is going to be a problem ? Will a rear mounted starter engage properly with a ring gear mounted towards the front of the flywheel? I believe this was original intended to be used in a Volvo powered boat if that helps. Thanks

I'll need two of them. I have to figure out if it'd be cheaper to buy new ones and have them balanced or pay the labor to have the gear moved.
