With this set up I can use the jeep clutch and pressure group as well.
The flywheel will get somewhat heavier. I did not measure / calculate the difference yet but the torque converter is not lite either. I think a little heavier would be good then the vibration will be a little lower adn that will be al ot better for this gasser transmission .

The bell housing of the wrangler had the starter cutout at the same side but a little lower then the mbz. Funny because with an off road I would have thought it be as high as possible.

Thks everyone.

Hrm I would think the the starter bump doesnt match up you are SOL?
