Volt Pancake

i have a 1958 bug...?
i have an 1835 in it but have noticed that though my car is converted to 12 volt,the flywheel hasnt(that would explain my grinding at start).my question is does a 12 volt flywheel fit on there?i know id have to grind the transmission housing a little wider,but my question is would it bolt up to the motor the same?there are 4 pins sticking out on the crank where it bolts up to and ive seen 5 on some 12 volt,but that was on a pancake style.anyways,would it work?
You can change the solenoid off a 12 vt starter to the 6vt and run a 6 vt starter there, There is a different front bushing for the 6vt than the 12 vt- make sure you have the right one.( I've used the 12 vt auto-stick shift starter-it had no front bushing.) Thats one solution- but only if your engine starts right up- no running the starter for any length of time.
The 12 vt flywheel will fit the engine, but not the transmission. If you go that route, you will be able to put the big bus clutch and flywheel package in there. If you search "answers" this cutting process has been explained--though with some risks.
The pancake (the big one) has nothing in common with the up rights.
and that flywheel was bigger still and would only fit a pancake.
Your best bet would be to search out a 36hp engine and struggle along like the rest of us old farts did. My first was a '54.
Hope this helps- as VW looks like anything will fit anywhere, but truth is there were lots of changes which have been worked around over the last 50 years -and some were more successful than others.
