1986 460 flywheel help
Hello
I need help with a swap I'm currently doing. I have a 1986 460 that I had built with d0VE heads. I want to put this motor in my 1979 F-150. I have ZF 5speed that I would like to use for the tranny. My problem is that the engine was originally bolted to an auto tranny and I need a flywheel. I am unsure as to what year flywheel I should get. I had previously thought that all 460 flywheels from 1979 up were the same, but after looking at Jeff's Bronco graveyard it seems that they sell a flywheel that is only good for 1987 and up 460s. Does anyone have any idea what the difference if any might be between the pre 87 and 87 up flywheels? I am assuming that I should probably get the later model flywheel since the ZF was used with the 460 After 87 or so, but am unsure if it will work properly without knowing what the difference is. Thanks for any info.
