Ordered a zz4 385 fast burn crate engine and need to know which flywheel to order, It is a 270 hp. coupe with a muncie 4spd.

thanks-

My 71' has a 14" diameter flywheel (max to OD of starter gear). What else do you need? I haven't reinstalled it yet so it's still sitting on the bench.

I guess thats it, I just wanted to order the flywheel with the engine, the crankshaft in the zz4s have a different bolt pattern and it reguires a new
flywheel to make it work! Thanks for the help!

I just bought one off of ebay. It is a one piece style flywheel for an '87 and up. Cost me about $50 plus shipping. The one I got had never been used but I had it resurfaced anyways as a lot of surface rust had developed. A lot of boats use these flywheels, for starting and as a counterweight to keep the momentum up. You might consider having it balanced to match the balance of the flywheel your engine came with. Not sure if its necessary, but might be worth checking on.

oh yeah, I am reusing my old clutch so I made sure it works with and 11 inch clutch, rather than the new (and incidentaly lighter) 10.5 inch clutch. Most flywheels fit both but be sure to ask.
