1976 360 engine swap

Well, the drawing you got was for a 130 tooth flywheel. It's a smaller diameter. The 143 would have to have less material removed from the same spots, because the wheel itself is bigger....Menaing the weight is "further out" on a lever, and that cahnges the effective weight. What you need to do, is get the right 360 143 tooth flywheel. I'm sure there is math to figure out the difference, but at this point, how many times do you want to have to install it and see if it's still out because it's not starting from nuetral anymore? You WILL destroy your 360 in VERY short order running it with a vibe of that kind.

I thought of that same thing and if he drilled the holes using the off of center measurement then he should be OK because what he has left out side of that measurement should be neutral, but you are right if he drilled the holes measuring from the outside of the fly wheel it will definately have a different balance because the weight was removed from a different radius from the 130 tooth wheel.
