I havnt done this conversion yet but i would say, wouldn't you already be sporting a 7M flywheel that was attatched to the 7M engine when you bought it?

Yes, it bolts on, if you are planning to use the W57/W58 gbox.
It doesnt work for an R154 box.
However, you will have to buy an uber strong clutch as the flywheel clutch face isnt as large as the 7mgte's or even 7mge's
A 5me/5mge/7mge stock clutch will not hold up for long.
Take the flywheel somewhere, tell them what you plan, and they will sell you a clutch to suit it.
Expect about $400-500 for the clutch.
Its gotta be tiny, but strong

Yes I am using the 5ME flywheel. Bolts go on. $230 for a sprung 4-puck brass button clutch and she's still holding strong. When I destroy this one, 7M flywheel will be going in.
Note: I did use an auto 7mgte that didnt have a flywheel.
