Big flywheel

Hey everybody I got a Ford flywheel C4TE 8380k came off a 1968 330 Big Truck engine. I am in the process of building a strong 416 to go in my truck was looking at this flywheel and it’s huge and heavy duty would I have problems because of weight my engine is internal balanced. Would a flywheel this big hurt anything I’m thinking it takes a 12 inch clutch ? Thanks everybody

You would need to use the big truck bellhousing, and what 330 engine was the flywheel on, some are external balanced, and the big trucks used a 13 inch clutch.
