Hi Paul,  there is an interference problem between the inside flange of
the S beam and the punched out tabs that are bent inward on the back of
the flywheel.  Reducing the width of the flange  between the bolts
about .375 in would take care of this.  What do  you recommend?   Jerry

I built the first one which looked beautiful until  I discovered I had
made a stupid error in establishing  the center of the beam.   Number
one is trash.    Jerry

I would cut the tabs off the flywheel. I believe they are there to cool
the torque converter. They actually consume a bit of HP at high RPM.

Perhaps you can use that first one later with a smaller center to center
distance.
