It will bolt right up (Im sure I have said that once or twice before now). The only thing different is that you must use a EA clutch.

or just get a couple of holes tapped and 3 dowels knocked in and you have turned your 3.9 flywheel into a 4.0 flywheel...

i had an old cross flow fly wheel machined to run an EB 6 bolt clutch. All they done was machine a small step in the flywheel, to center the clutch, and tapped 6 holes in it, cost me less than 50 bucks from memory
