what flywheel

Post by Tiny »

so I am putting a TH400 on my 6.2l chev oiler in the 73, the flywheel that came with the gearbox and adapter is to small, needs to be a larger diameter 3 bolt flywheel to suit the torque converter

Can anyone tell me what diameter / tooth count flywheel I need P/N would be nice and best place to source one

Thanks

Adam

no probs, there is 5 or 6 have to check that one and the torque converter is a 3 bolt unit, np getting something drilled if needs be....does anyone know of a yank truck with the 6.2 with t t400??

So it seems that after a chat with bruswick diesel that the 3 bolt converter is not the correct item, I am trying to arrange an exchange for the 3 bolt to a 6 bolt converter now.

The crank flange is 6 bolt, flex plate should be 182 teeth IIRC and you need a 6 bolt torque converter, this flywheel is available from brunswick for $175

me thinks I am going to do a bit of a write up on the pitfalls of this conversion when I get it done
