OEM Application for an 11” 172 tooth 6 bolt flywheel

[Hemihead2]

As the title alludes to...what did it originally come on? I couldn’t find it specifically listed on Brewer’s website. Thanks!

 

[wyrmrider]

looks like it's drilled for both the real 11 and the 10 1/2/- 11
I'll guess hemi they used several different flywheels and bellhousings over the years- and starters
6 pack would have a weight - right

 

[Hemihead2]

That’s what I thought at first but this only has 6 bolts so it’s not a Hemi which would be 8 bolts.

 

[Fran Blacker]

Any numbers markings. Looks real heavy, maybe an aftermarket flywheel?

 

[wyrmrider]

were all hemi's 8 bolts?
I can't remember the last time I saw an original hemi
truck

 

[Hemihead2]

No numbers, that’s what has me stumped. It’s not any heavier than a 10.5” piece.

 

[gkent]

Old hemi's maybe ???

 

[Hemihead2]

Never thought of that. I was thinking maybe Max Wedge but that may be 8 bolt as well.

 

[gkent]

Max wedge is 6 bolt. 172t would be a direct drive starter.

Maybe check the ring gear for a number.

all genII hemi's I know of were 8 bolt. could be industrial; truck or something.

 

[Crider]

early hemi and big truck 413 were both 8 bolt cranks too

 

[POMONAMISSEL]

i would say indust engine might have needed the size of it for rotating weight . indust motors ran low rpms . the ind 413 was 8 bolt for stick trannys but 6 bolt for autos . all early hemi stuff was 8 bolt cranks , all 426 hemis had 8 bolt cranks .

Didn't 68&69 383's and 440's come with 11" clutches?

Didn't 68&69 383's and 440's come with 11" clutches?

My 1969 flywheel was 11", but it was 143 tooth.

[R/T Boy 67]

I have that exact flywheel. It came from a marine application. It could have been used elsewhere also.

 

[moparmarks]

I have couple 440 industrial 172 wheels.

 

[Hemihead2]

So is it useable on a vehicle with an 11” bell? With a Hemi starter?
