    Some time ago i surfed the Egay, and found this Ford flathead aluminium flywheel.
    It was really cheap so I bought it, thinking it would be easy to mount the starter ring gear.
    Ok it was too good to be true :)
    There is no way it will mount on a Ford flathead Crank, so what did I buy?
    or more specific what does it fit?

    Any info is appreciated.

  2. What you bought is a wall hanger, look at the clutch surface that sucker has been hot.

    no offense intended and I have no idea what it fits.

    Ok so they don't use a starter motor?
    And since its a bronze insert aluminum flywheel I was thinking drag racing.
    No offense but was mopar sixes racing material?

    Rule of thumb. If it sounds too good to be true; it is. Don't walk away. Run.
