M20 & Getrag 240

[superj]

ok. that's good to know. I always wondered about that but never had any reason to try it

[RoarinE21]

Alright I figured it out.. So I have the getrag 240 from an m42 bolted up to my m20, starter would engage and spin but only grind on the flywheel. I added two washers to each of the starter bolts so It sat further from the bellhousing and the starter bendix wouldnt shoot as far into the flywheel, works great. So just do that, get/make yourself a custom trans crossbar to account for the 10 degree angle and you got some more aggrressive gears behind your m20!

Ah, yes, the M42 starter's shallower to adjust for that,
having tried to use one on a deeper trans...
