Y and W? what do you mean? Y goes on a W. Y and other types of W bells take up the same space yeah. They all leave the spigot in mid air, so you need to address that. An altezza flywheel takes care of this as it has the spigot bearing in the flywheel.
Is that what you meant?

Can someone with a 3y bellhousing measure how long it actually is? I have another one, which has the starter and clutch on the exhaust side which if it is the same length as a 3y one I can use it to fit up my motor.

i use a custom 2s bellhousing and put a longer spigot bearing into the back of the crank ,problem fixed
Does this mean that all cars running w-series boxes have spigot bearings in the flywheel? Or do 22re motors etc have a crank that protrudes further back into the bellhousing, as I was under the impression that the bearing was in the crank on those engines.
Do aftermarket flywheels to suit altezza/beams have provison for a bearing? Or do they need to be altered

well i have had both boxes in ,and it was easier for me to put spigot into back of crank than back of flywheel as my f/wheel is 3 kilos in weight
Yeah any altezza clutch kit, oem or aftermarket has the bearing in the flywheel. Also, other RWD later model S motors have it in the flywheel as well, like 3/4SFE from cressida's and townace vans. These are 8 bolt as well, although not the correct hole size or PCD for beams 3SGE's, they can be modified to work.
On either the Y or S bellhousing you can use a double row spigot bearing which will support the input shaft just fine.
Where is the clutch/starter located on the 2s bellhousing?
