8 Bolt Crank Flywheel?

Jetsetter · Jun 1, 2010

I have a 4.6 out of what is supposed to be a 00 GT with a Windsor 8 bolt crank. The car was originally an automatic, and I'm under the impression my 97 is going to have a Romeo 6 bolt. What flywheel should I get? I had a part number for a 00 8 bolt crank standard, but I'm told its discontinued.

You can use any 8 bolt flywheel for a Cobra, they had 8 bolt cranks also. I've seen the same companies like Fidanza etc sell both the 8 and 6 bolt.

+1. just keep in mind the diameter difference.

The diameter is my point of concern as I would like to keep the 10.5 diameter as I don't feel like ballsing around with a clutch disc swap. I don't even know if my T45 will accept the larger flywheel.

i hope it does, thats the transmission ill be using; along with a 8 bolt 11". hahaha. (honestly havent done much research into it yet...

I really can't afford speculation as I'm trying to swap this motor for less than 500 dollars, with 375 already taken out of my budget for the motor itself.

i'd be looking for a bullitt flywheel....

really you should PM or call "steven" <-- username, he is a ford parts salesman and gives member discounts, he will know exactly what part you need.

I have a flywheel for a Bullitt and it's definitely on a TR3650 with an 11 inch clutch disc, not to mention all Bullitt parts are discontinued by Ford.
