Not to "hijack", but the questions are along the same line. I plan a 5.3 , also with a gen I trans & bell. Does that 1050 flywheel also fit an 11" clutch? Also, what did you use for flywheel & pressure plate bolts? BTW, that looks like a nice build you have going there crazyL

I bolted my original 11-7/8 clutch to the NFW1050(had to remove the alignment pins) using my original clutch bolts, I believe they are the 3/8 shouldered bolts. I used LS1 flywheel bolts.





and thanks.

Nice! I have you to thank, as your pirate build thread provided me with the essential clutch, flywheel, bearing information I needed.
