Hi Matto1Kute

I got a * Brand New E16i Engine *. . .

1- Remove the (Injection)
2- Add Sunny B310 points .
3- Add 510 Twin Carbs .
4- Add mechanical Fuel Pump .

Next Step Will be to Try & Install it on my 120Y van .

Did you find a Solution for Starter Engine Fix ?

Any Tips & Help welcome ...

i hope it works so i can claim a goal haha

this has not been easy.
but..
im swapping the ringear on the flywheel because the a series one fits on the e series flywheel. but the car has had alot of small mods. some which i hated but the increase of power was so tempting, so i had to.

If a V8 can be fitted into a B-series car, why not a small E-series four cylinder?

But it's not easy as the questions here indicate. Nobody knows the answer.

please excuse my ignorance, but you can use an e engine in an a car?

Are you using the A-series flywheel or E-series flywheel? Maybe they just need to be swapped. Or maybe using a fwd flywheel will work.

Could it be possible to slot one of the starter bolt holes so you can adjust the depth that the starter gear is meshed with the ring gear?

making the one that turns the wrong way work would certainly be the easiest.

changing the drive gear to match the flywheel of one that fits and turns the right way, but grinds would be the second easiest.

re-toothing the flywheel seems like a lot of work.

i would swap the A series bendix drive with an E series one, so that u can use the A series starter motor and have a drive that fits.

new ring gear on flywheel so a sereis motor meshes???
