Why would I do that?
-A 280 flywheel probably does not have the same bolt pattern
-even if it does: does it has the correct starter gear?
-even if that is also the same: I have to customize it also, because i need a BMW clutch on it.
What I mean to say: A 280 flywheel probably has the same amount of specs that i DONT have to alter, as a flywheel from a John Deere tractor: none.
Anyway, right now im in the process of measuring carefully the bolt pattern of a m119. Made some 'tools' and bolts to do this.
After that, it's the BMW tranny's turn.
And then lay these patterns up on one another, and find out what is the best way to match tranny and engine.
