unknown flywheel

Is this or is this not a Flathead Flywheel ??

 

Should have 6 holes for FH...4 bolts. 2 pins.

 

Does that hold true for ford and merc ?

 

yes, correct me if I'm wrong Bruce.

 

All are the same...6 holes, you only see 4 on start of dis***embly because a plate goes under bolts.

 

Post tooth count and diameter...someone here will know for sure...and edit "flathead " out of ***le so the pushrod geeks will open thread!
That one is drilled for Long clutch, but has cast pocket locations for B&B type showing.

 

Will do ,,someone said maybe 216 chevy

What does 'drilled for long clutch mean " and how can you tell that?

 

It has the pattern for Long pattern (name, not long in length) as used on Fords and many heavy duty applications on heavy/high torque loads. Commonest clutch for racing back when. Borg &Beck was used on many p***enger cars of all makes, used different pattern matching those extra pockets.

 

so this one would be non Long pattern ?

 

Yes, and almost any flywheel can be redrilled for the other type and other size PP as well.

 

It has 139 teeth,, Was reading about early Hemi's running 139 tooth Chevy set up with and 8 bolt crank. Could this be for that and only use 4 holes ? or does it not work like that?

 

My old 270 GMC that was a 6 volt truck had a four bolt crank flange, but a very co**** tooth ring gear. My later 302 and 270 GMCs had a six bolt crank flange and I think 168 tooth ring gear? Long tine ago. I like the 216 idea.

 

216's are 6 bolt, 235's too. My guess would be an aftermarket flathead 'wheel that was ordered with one pin hole. other than the missing hole, it looks like one. Or maybe a Ford fourbanger?

 

Would you actually run into and problem using only 1 pin hole ?

are V8 60 cranks 1 pin ?

 

If it is Flathead,which I don't think so,where would you put the pilot bearing???

 

Never done a clutch on a flathead. Only newer motors and the pilot bearing pressed into the end of the Crankshaft
