I don't give a rats behind what some autoparts stores parts catalog says.
The info I posted came directly from the 1957/63 and 1964/72
FORD Truck Parts Catalogs.
11 1/2" or 12" clutch: 1961/64 F350/750. The flywheel used with the 11 1/2 or 12 inch clutch was not used in F100/250's.
F350/750's w/a 11 1/2" or 12" clutch's flywheel has a 12 7/8" bolt circle. F100/250's w/a 10 1/2" or 11" clutch's flywheel has a 12 3/8" bolt circle.
If the disc has worn down to nothing, this may have caused the flywheel to burn, usually blue heat spots are present.
If this occurs, you'll have to replace the flywheel.
Once a flywheel has fried, resurfacing it won't do one damn bit of good.
