Guys I need to know what tooth flywheel to use for a 5.0L/M5R2 combo along with what starter and size clutch do I need to use?

Thanks!

Shane,


I think this will hold up quite well:

The number of teeth really doesn't make a difference. You just have to match the starter with the flywheel.

Early model cars came with a 10.5" clutch disk and a smaller flywheel than the late model cars do which had an 11.0" clutch.

I thought that there was a specific tooth flywheel I had to buy to make it work.

The flywheel starter should be from the same year so long as they are the correct balance. The clutch can be one of many, in fact, I suggest a custom made button clutch (this is for the road race car right?) that will have a basic "in and out" usage.
