I could just swap in the flywheel and clutch from the Samurai, but it is a lot heavier! No NO NO!! I want lightweight!! But not sure what I can do about it, it looks like I might be able take apart the metro clutch disk and put in the Samurai center spline part, but I dunno if it'll work or not. That is burning up a couple hundred bucks of parts if it doesn't work. Hmm..
You should be able to return parts to the auto parts stores if they don't fit. Buy it and give it a test fit, return the Metro parts if it doesn't work out right and use the heavier Samurai stuff.
