Here's what I know -- I can't see a hatchet weight in front of the timing cover. My flex plate did not have a weight on it. And my casting number is not legible. This is cleaned, wire wheeled, degreased. It's all cast together. Safe to say it's a D9TE with an internally balanced crank?

Just want to make sure I get the correct flexplate.

Thanks!

 

The internal cranks did not fit in D9TE blocks without clearancing the lower cylinder bores. It could have been done, but I would not assume you have a D9 block.

 

Ahhh.... the previous thread I read was unclear and it looked like the D9 blocks were the internally balanced ones.

I agree, mine is probably not D9 and probably is internally balanced. I have ordered the non-weighted flywheel.

Thanks.
