The chamfered edge of of the flywheel ring-gear should face the front of the flywheel to allow the starter drive gear to engage with it. The torque for the bolts is 80-90 foot pounds.

You should have dowels on the flywheel, one large and one smaller so the flywheel will only go in one place. Mind your toes!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:
