Which flywheel do I have?

I have a 92 7.3 IDI with a ZF 5-spd transmission.

How do I know which flywheel do I have so I can get a new one?

Thanks

Take off the inspection cover at the bottom of the bell housing. You should be able to look in and "inspect" what flywheel you have. Ebay had the best deals on flywheel that I found. Was able to replace clutch, flywheel, and bearings for about 300.

Thanks for the reply.

I've had the engine out before, so I know how to look, but I don't know how to tell the difference between a single mass and a dual mass flywheel. Any tips?

A dual mass has springs in the flywheel itself, sorta looks like a combination flywheel & clutch disc in one. If the flywheel looks like a standard solid flywheel then it is a single.
