    Absolutely not!!! Flywheel and shaft tapers must be clean and dry. Torque the nut to 40-45 foot pounds on your Sportwin

    Another member gave me the same advice about 2 weeks ago re: NOT to grease the interface, and I’m very grateful for it. Especially after explaining the reason. Now as far as the torque spec is concerned….. would that apply to a ’59 Super Seahorse too?
