Flwheel

I am swapping from a 250 six cylinder that has a three speed manual transmission to a 350. Will my existing flywheel work on the 350? If not what flywheel should I search for ?

Re: Flwheel

i did this on a 78 c20 i had to alter the size of the crankshaft mounting bolt holes but it works well
(i cut some steel tube inserts to step the 6 cylinder 9/16 holes down to the 1/2in small block holes and used arp bolts)

Re: Flwheel

I have a 454 flexplate on my 250 six (with the balance weight removed, of course...).
