- Install the manual transmission engine flywheel to the crankshaft. Refer to Engine Balancing .
- Install the automatic transmission engine flywheel to the crankshaft.
- Apply threadlock GM P/N 12345382 (Canadian P/N 10953489) or equivalent to the threads of the flywheel bolts.
- Install the engine flywheel bolts.
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts first pass in sequence to 20 N·m (15 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts second pass in sequence to 50 N·m (37 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts final pass in sequence to 100 N·m (74 lb ft).
Important:
• For manual transmission applications, note the position and direction
of the engine flywheel before removal. The flywheel does not use a locating
pin for alignment. Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and the flywheel
before component removal. The existing manual transmission engine flywheel
must be installed to the original position and direction. The engine
flywheel will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will
be pulled onto the crankshaft by the engine flywheel bolts. This procedure
requires a three stage tightening process. • DO NOT remove the propshaft hub or flexplate from the automatic transmission
engine flywheel. The flywheel, prop shaft hub, and flex plate are balanced
as an assembly. If service is required, the entire flywheel assembly
should be replaced.
