3:55 gears to 323 gears

In cars with high gear ratios when ordered with 4 spd the flywheel weight is much heavier. Most 323 355 391 cars came with the same weight flywheel. Buying and stripping these cars since the 80's I have found that 4 spd or 3 spd cars ordered with 294 or 276 gears came a heavier flywheel.

I had a 340 swinger that I had bought in the 80's . I was the second owner so I new it was never touched. It had 294 gears and The car was like an airplane .loved driving that car on the highway These heavy flywheels are flat on both sides and look as though you can put them on Backwards they are much heavier. I have one here and many of the lighter style . I am keeping the heavy flywheels for cars with big cams and higher ratio gears. I can check the weight if interested in knowing the difference.
