Hi guys was there ever a 180mm 130tooth flywheel made that could go into a '63 ish 1200 to make it 12v?If so has anyone got one laying around spare?

I've never counted the teeth of a flywheel, but you can get 180mm (clutch) in 6 and 12 volt. Then there are two types of crankshafts.
One has a gasket (generally 6 volt) where the flywheel and crankshaft join and the other (generally 12 volt) has an 'o' ring.
The 12 volt flywheel is slightly larger than the 6 volt, so a 6 volt bell housing will require clearancing if installing a 12 volt flywheel.
Not sure if this answers your question? Dave
