I have a 104mm block, 88mm crank, 8V head, and and everything lines up just fine with the factory 951 flywheel and bellhousing. As 3 liter turbos go, it's as close to standard as it gets. Have you compared that flywheel to stock?Johns944Turbo wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 9:35 am 944T with 3.0L 968 block, 8V with 944T parts behind it all the way to the transmission.
Evenything bolts up, BUT, the flywheel doesn't sit in the bellhousing in the same position. It's about 1/4 inch back, so the speed and ref sensors will never line up. I googled this a dozen different ways and it seems that bolting a 944T (SPEC Performance) flywheel to a 968 crank will result in the flywheel being set back a bit. I checked for TDC and the flywheel does not sit directly above the inspection slot at the bottom of the bellhousing, It's hard to find, but with an angled mirror, I could see the timing mark, so TDC is accomplished. But that doesn't help the sensor alignment. Someone else must have built a 944T with a 3.0 block with 8V head and 944T parts behind it. How'd you solve this problem? Do I have to use a 968 bellhousing and torquetube? Thanks
