1986 and up flywheel change???
I just installed an 1986 transam T5 in my car and I have vibraton with the car parked clutchpedal to the floor, at a bout 2500 rpms and up. What is the difference in the flywheels from 1985 and down versus 1986 and up? I have a built 350 with a block and crank from late 70's and I am wondering if i need an older flywheel. And yes I put a pilot bearing in the crank.

The flange on the crank changed when the 1 piece rear main seal was introduced. You'll need a flywheel for a 2 piece RMS crank.

So this would have nothing to do with a vibration? The clutch P Plate and throughout bearing were new.

Is it when the car is in gear but the clutch is pressed, like sitting at idle before taking off (or is in rpm specific, I know you said 2500)?
