Hi All-
I was ready to mate the t-5 tranny and my 70's 350 4 bolt main truck motor on my 1986 camaro z-28 (originally w/ a 305), but when I tried to put the 305 flywheel on the crankshaft, it would not slide on the crankshaft and the bolt holes didn't match anyways..So I got my hands on a 70's truck flywheel and it fit but when I tried to put the 86 bellhousing on, it would not fit over the flywheel? What should i do? What is the answer? What flywheel do I need to make this work? Can it be done?

I have searched old posts but nothing...please give me a couple answers...thanks so much..

Dan

 

I've been through this before so here ya go.

What you need to a 153 tooth flywheel for a 2pc rear main. The best source is a junkyard, ask for a flywheel for a 82-85 Camaro/Firebird. You can not use a 168 tooth, it has to be a 153 for a 2 pc rear main seal and you have to use the stock 305 starter.

If you don't want to do that you can get a lakewood scattersheild and use the 168 tooth flywheel and a larger clutch with the correct starter.
