i did it by modifying my f13/gte flywheel to match up with the crank of the xe, bear in mind it needs to be done by a **** hot machinist as it needs to be very precise, or, you could just buy mine, its lightened and balanced and ready to go on......

edit: also the centre hole of the flywheel needs to have a ring pressed into it to match it to the xe flywheel. if not the flywheel would want to move about under load, bad news if it does...

you will prbs still blow it to pieces if you floor it to much, You will find it just spins up way to much
