Re: which flywheel needed?? for v6 manual
You need to either find out what year the engine is from or remove the flex plate to find out if it has a weight on it or not. There are two types of flywheels; '82-'87 and '88-'95. 82-87 have a weight on them and are not neutrally balanced. 88-95 are neutrally balanced.
Just because it has a carb on it doesn't mean it's a pre-88 engine necessarily.

You should be able to find the casting number on the block, I believe on the back of the driver's side, right by the bellhousing. Hopefully its not too dirty to read.
