Flywheel questions...

The manual trans car flywheels are funky thick and are designed for a Sachs dual disc. Look up a flywheel for a 2005 Ram 2500 5.7/5spd. truck and see what the tooth count is. After that just get the appropriate diameter clutch with spline count for your trans. Hopefully the truck flywheel will work.

Based on this [ame="http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Mopar-Clutch-Flywheel-53022042AA-143-tooth-Ram-250-hemi-etc-/221232795085?nma=true&si=0AaGzOJ9S0kUlEY%252FY2mLPlpCtu4%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557"]listing[/ame], I assume it is indeed a 143 tooth flywheel but this seems to confirm that the flywheel is indeed even larger than a standard 11, possibly 12.5" as this references. I guess I should just stop being lazy and figure this stuff out seeing as the information is clearly out there... guess that puts me back at square one, looking for a 143 tooth 11" flywheel that will bolt onto the hemi crank for cheap...
