4.3 with a V8 T5, same flywheel?
Hey guys, I'm doing a 4.3 swap in my 89 using a one piece rear seal 4.3 and a V8 T5. I was wondering since I already have a V8 clutch (brand new Valeo 10.5 inch clutch and pressure plate ) can I use the V8 flywheel (one piece WC T5) and just have it rebalanced for the 4.3? Also, would it be beneficial to have the flywheel lightened?

If a 4.3 1989 Caprice used the same PN flexplate as a 5.7 1989 model, you have your amswer. Search it.
