Anyone know the Diameter of a stock T5 Flywheel ? also how many teeth.

 

ok i just found this on the search,

153

12¾"


so assuming this is the stock specs for a 86 and up t5, where can i find a flywheel with the same teeth and diameter, but with the wider bolt pattern, for the internal balanced motor, i belive which is the 1 piece main seal

also to give an idea of my problem, the motor is from i belive a 76-79 Camaro, so the flexplate that was in it was rather large, the flywheel i have wont fit the back of the crank being as the bolt pattern doesnt line up and the center hole isnt large enough, but i need the same over all diameter for it to work with the starter.

 

153 teeth (which uses a starter having parallel unequal length bolts)

clutch it takes is 10.5" (10.75" on 80s Vette pressure plate w/ special bolts)

 

ok so its 10.5 not 12 3/4 ?

any idea where i can get a flywheel that will work for me ?

am i correct in that the 86 and up used 2 piece main seal ? which was externaly balanced

 

No, 10.5" is the usual clutch disc diameter. Not the dia of the flywheel. You're overcomplicating this. For your pre-86 SBC, all you need simply is an 84 Camaro flywheel.

85-down SBC are 2pc seal with a neutral balanced flywheel (exc 400cid)
86-up SBC are 1pc seal with external balance.

 

ah ok i understand, sorry i had it all backwards in my head. so would this flywheel work ?

Yes it would work, but I personally would prefer a 16lb scalloped style flywheel, more commonly known for being used on the L69 thirdgen engine and the L88 427.

 

alright cool, thanks a lot man, you've been a huge help

 

no problem. that flywheel stuff can be at times.

 

yeah no kidding, I had everything i needed for the auto to manual swap, and i just got the flywheel resurfaced, then i got to put it on, and I was like oh hell no, so dropped the flywheel, went in the house for a beer. then the researce began :-/
