I have an alfetta GTV, I am swapping a 3.0 v6 from a 164, I installed an 2.5 flywheel.
I need to know if the drive shaft clutch and gearbox from the 4 cylinder will support the engine HP, somebody can help me??

The alfetta front coupling won't fit the GtV 2.5 fly wheel . It can handle the power now problem but it would be much easier to find front section of GtV prop and join it to your alfetta prop . We have done that many times with our v6 giuliettas . Also note your flywheel will not be balanced to fit the 3.0 motor unless you have someone to copy/paste balance factor from the 3.0 flywheel to the 2.5 flywheel .

Don't forget that the motor mounts in the body are different between 4-cyl and 6-cyl cars...

Thank you for your information, where can I find an GTV6 front coupling and a front section of GTV prop?
