Re: 4.3 flywheel

The 4.3 is a Chevy block that was used primarily in the S-10 pickups. There are a lot of those engines out there. I would call some junkyards to save some money.

Ayuh,.... Donno,... Big flywheels are what Merc uses...

I found this on a quick google,...
"Flywheels and Bellhousings
The 4.3 V6 is typically found with a 168 tooth flywheel (11" clutch disc) behind it instead of the more-common 153 tooth (10.5" clutch disc). This is done for clutch engagement, but moreso for the weight and resulting torque provided. Therefore, the V6 requires the "big clutch" bellhousing which affords greater clearance. As the V6 has the same crank flange as the V8's, total caution should be taken when swapping flywheels around from the V8 to the V6. We're told (this is hearsay, folks) that the 153 tooth flywheel from the 305 V8 will bolt up and be properly balanced."

Good Luck...
