Small-Block Measurements?
I'm looking for some measurements from a 302/351W with a true flywheel on it, not a flexplate. The measurements are to determine if a small-block input shaft for a ZF5 would resolve some of the issues when mating one of the 460 versions of the ZF with a 351M/400.
Specifically, I'm looking for:
Or, if someone has just the flywheel, I need the distance from the rear of the crank pocket to the rear face of the flywheel. IOW, the thickness of the flywheel less the depth of the crank pocket. That's because I have a 351W which I can measure and, with your dimensions, figure it all out. Oh yes, I'd like the dimensions on the pilot bearing as well.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks!! But if all you can snag are the measurements for the flywheel then I can take it from there.

Sorry Gary, the flywheel must be boxed up and taken in a previous trip. I only came across a 302 flexplate.

You tried anyway. Thanks! Maybe someone else will have a flywheel. Or, I could see how the 351M's flywheel would look on a 351W - in the CAD drawing at least. Surely the flywheels aren't too different dimensionally.

The project is all packed up tight for a few months now 
, couldn't help any one now if my life depended on it.
Thanks for the thought though.
