I'm on the tail end of rebuilding my 390 and after I got my clutch kit in I went to put the flywheel and clutch kit on.
After putting the disc on, using the alignment tool, went to bolt my pressure plate on, but quickly realized the holes didn't match.
It's a 184 tooth flywheel, 3 finger pressure plate, both supposedly stock for a 1965/67 F100/350352-390. Is it the flywheel or the pressure plate?
No 390's in F100/350's until 1968. On sale day, 352/360's magically become 390's!

If your truck has a swapped in 390, whoever did the swap probably retained the 352's 12 3/8" flywheel. It'll work just fine with the 390 .. as long as you use an 11" clutch.
1981: Bored my 1965 F100's 352 to 390 standard, added 390 crank, rods, pistons, rings. Kept the 352 flywheel, as I saw no reason to change it.
Thank youthat helps alot there were many things not done right on this engine I found when rebuilding it he had rtv everywhere and definitely needs to invest in a torque wrench..... I also looked at the picture of the flywheel that I supposedly bought and I only have 6 holes compared to the 12 shown
The fly wheel is one problem. The clerk even stated there should be 12 bolt holes for the interface of the two different clutches 12 3/8 and 12 7/8 we only have the 6 located on the 12 3/8 diameter. Jegs is working a replacement now. fficeffice" /><O></O> <O></O> However, I have learned the MU1011-1 clutch is a 12 inch clutch that uses the same bolt pattern as the 11.5 inch clutch of 12 7/8. The new questions to ask is “will a 12” pressure plate interfere with the bell housing of a 3 on the tree transmission”??<O></O>
