Question on Bert and Brinn couplers

[junkyard]

Are the Bert and Brinn couplers interchangeable? Thank you.

[keeks]

No they are not. Whatever coupler/flywheel you have, has to match the bellhousing. if you have a bert coupler in a brinn bellhousing you will have starter engagement issues, and vice versa. The trans doesn't matter, can go with either bellhousing.

Thank you, I wasn't sure.

The starter idler is the only part that has to match. Otherwise the belhousing are identical.

You can use either hub/flywheel as long as you have a matching starter idler gear.

As far as transmission goes yes both transmission will work on either drive hub.

a brinn bell will not work with a bert flywheel. a bert flywheel is smaller diameter and will take the teeth off i a couple of start ups.

If you Change the idler it will absolutely work.

This is correct,as the Brinn bell,is a copy of the Bert.
