Yes. This will be the 8 bolt flywheel you will need. Just remember the get a spiggott bearing to go into the back of the crank to suppodt the input shaft of the gearbox.

I assume the spiggot bearing is the throwout bearing, which is on the gearbox side of the clutch so you won't have it and you'll have to get one. I'm pretty sure they're only about $15ish.

A spiggot bearing is different to a throwout bearing. The input shaft of the gearbox is supported by the spiggott bearing. It goes into the end of the crank and is only on RWD cars. No spiggott - front bearing failure on your gearbox. Auto parts store for around $10. Use a ADM sprinter one as it is the same.

the bearing your talking about is a thrust bearing
