Flywheel question

Is there a difference in the flywheel on a TH200c tranny behind a 305 and one behind a 350?

As long as they are for engines with the same rear main seal design (86-back vs. 87-up) they are the same.

hey RB83L69,

I have an '86 IROC with the one-pc rear main seal. Will a flywheel from '91 bird (V8) be compatible for my application? I'm doing swap from A4 to T5.

It should work correctly, as long as the motor is a one-piece. Everything else about it is the same. You might have to change starters though: the A4 should have a 14" 168-tooth flex plate, but the M5 will have a 12¾" 153-tooth flywheel.
