LOOKING FOR 5-BOLT 289 FLYWHEEL

[Boss1Ray]

I have a friend here in OKC that is looking for 5-bolt 289 flywheel.  It needs to be usable with no cracks.  If anyone has one, let me know and  I'll put you in contact with him.

Thanks,

Ray

Is he looking for a Ford Flywheel?  why not go aftermarket and get a new one?

I may have one in the garage as i had a NOS one for my car.

Do you mean he is looking for a 6 bolt flywheel for an early 5 bolt bell housing 289 block? If so he is looking for a ring gear tooth count of 160. I think the casting number is C3OE-6380-B. I heard the OD is the same as 157 tooth flywheel but don't know if the 157 will work.  If it is a HIPo 289, the imbalance is not 28.8 oz, it is 30.4 I think (verify). It has been several years since I messed with a HiPo 289. Chuck

Chuck it is for our friend Andy.  He said it was a 5 bolt 289 flywheel.  Motor is a 2bbl but he will prob run a 4 bbl carb on it.

I think it's one with the 157 tooth ring gear.

Yes.  I just verified from him.

He prefers an original Ford one.

Will have to check I might have one. I have bell housing, and transmission for sure.
