This was posted some time ago, and I saved it for my web site, but still haven't gotten around to adding.

just 2 weeks ago i replaced the engine in a 86 gl-10 wagon 4x4
sombody (not me) had put a ea-81 in it
it still had the stock 5spd 4x4 dual range tranny in it
obviously whoever did the last engine swap screwed it up because the motor was blown to high heven
anyway,
while i had the engine out i started looking at the clutch\flywheel arrangement
it had:
ea-81 flywheel (8 1/2")
ea-81 pressure plate (8 1/2")
ea-82 clutch disk (8 1/2")
so boys and girls thats how the ea-81 engine to ea-82 tranny setup is done!!!!
enjoy

 

Thanks to McBrat and Scubydoo for above information.
