A stock 948 flywheel is 1.2" thick. A stock 1098 flywheel is .9" thick. If
a 948 flywheel is lightened or a 1098 one used on a 948, guess what! The
distance from the back of the engine back plate is changed also. This
coupled with the fact that a ribcase has the input shaft protruding out
further from the trans case, a thicker engine backing plate is typically
used so the input shaft won't bottom out in the end of the 948 crankshaft.
Sense any changes being possible? Mix and match, (or non match) hardly
apply to my original statement.
