Default Changing 3.9 to 4.0 in EA

I have a 89 ea fairmont and im about to convert to manual, then a month or so after that i will have finished my 4litre for it, does the 4 litre engine accept the 3.9 manual flywheel and clutch?

3.9 Flywheel and clutch will fit on 4.0L crank.
I would go a 4.0L flywheel and clutch though since it is a fair bit stronger.

Yes it does... only complication is when AU Engines are involved.
