What flywheel?

Alright so i was hoping that the flywheel off my L69 would fit the 350 im dropping in it, but they are different. I think the 350 is a 1 piece rear main seal, so what could I use for a flywheel? Any old one off a 1 piece rear main motor? Also would it be worth it to get a lightweight flywheel? Thanks

Yes, you need one from a 305/350 with a 1pc rear seal, 153 tooth ring gear.

'86-'92 f-body V8 flywheel. It'll be 153-tooth, just like your current 305, so same starter.

Probably not. I wouldn't worry about it.
