SAE Housing & Flywheel Dimensions

Below are listed standard Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) adaptation configurations. This
configuration allows easy coupling to most diesel and gas engines which follow the same SAE
standards. The following graphic shows the typical configuration and their respective SAE
denomination:

To determine the SAE adaption in your specific application, simply match

dimensions XD, XB, XE, XF and XG to arrive at a combination of SAE
adaptations for the engine housing and for the engine flywheel, i.e.: SAE#1
Flywheel Housing with SAE#14 Flywheel.
