Re: [AMC-list] Help! Need to ID several Manual flywheels

[Matt Haas <mhaas@xxxxxxx>]

Sixes are internally balanced so there should be any weights or 
lightening holes on the six cylinder parts.

I am pretty sure the 258's are the ones with the "hub and spoke" look to the back of them while the V8's all have a square "balance weight" cast into the back of each one.

There is an inner circle of bolts which are of smaller diameter than the bolts I have classicly seen holding on a clutch.  Is this a flywheel from a 4 cyl that can use either an large or smaller disc?
