choosing the right flywheel
Hello all, the 3.4 BGT project is under way, and I am seeking some advice.
I am using a '95 Firebird 3.4, with 94 Camaro T5 and bellhousing, and want to know which S10 flywheel is the right one to use? Clutch will be stock Camaro (maybe with Ford disc), probably with Howe HTOB. I have a '95 S10 flywheel now, but from a 2.2 so suspect that is too small for the 10" Camaro clutch. I am not opposed to buying new or used and resurfacing and balancing with the clutch. Thanks for the help and Cheers! Terry |

Re: choosing the right flywheel
Terry, you need a S10 2.8 V6 148 tooth internal balance flywheel. Usually you would use the S10 pressure plate too. If you are using the Camaro pressure plate you can use the 3.4 flywheel too. People like the 2.8 bellhousing to mount the T5 straight up instead of tilted. If you use a Ford T5 you need the Turbo 4 clutch disk.

Re: choosing the right flywheel
Thanks, Jim. I am using the Camaro bell housing and modifying the shifter for the tilted condition, since the bell housing came with tranny.

Re: choosing the right flywheel
I have a 3.4 stock resurfaced flywheel you can have for the postage. I have no idea how much that might be. I had it resurfaced then decided to go with a lightened flywheel from BMC

Re: choosing the right flywheel
I use the GM T5 and have no difficulty with the shifter being slightly offset.
