Need a 250 Flywheel

[pbrown]

Ford did have a brief period of zero balance 302s. They went from 28 to 0 and then to 50. I'm no expert on the 250 six but if a standard small block V8 flywheel fits, you can buy a new zero balance unit.

The Ford Racing catalog lists a billet 157 tooth flywheel with zero ballance. The part number is M-6375-D302.

Summit Racing has it online.

Pat,
yes I can use a SBF flywheel had to do a little more research but I havent gotten anyone to tell me no I can't.. So I can use a zero balance flywheel..

I found one on E-bay for a fair price.. was hoping for a Fomoco orginal to save even more coin and take any guess work out of it..

Ok I found a flywheel...

Now I need a bell housing.. The one I have might not work.. I have a D1TE-6394-aa which fits a 351 but looks to be a truck bell which is too deep..

Any body know where to find a 6 bolt SBF Bell??

I havent looked at e-bay yet..

I might be selling one soon though

These guys should have something.

You could probably source one from a T5 equipped 5.0 Mustang.

I could.. I've been toying with the idea of hydraulic clutch..

But in the mean time I was thinking of using the z-bar system.. but I need to check if the 250 block has the boss for the pivot of if the bell has the pivot for the z-bar..

I'll research hydraulic clutches.. I'm only in the parts gathering stage as I'm waiting for the machine work to be finished before i start assembly and disassembly..

A hydraulic clutch would be nice. You could also get one of the cable clutch kits from the website I posted earlier.

I've heard of people using Mazda clutch masters. I'm not sure what model. Maybe the 323?

For the slave, you should be able to use this.

It attaches using the bellhousing to engine bolts. It pushed to the rear. You should be able to find one at a local Napa store.

I prefer my local O'reilly. Only because I'm a manager at one..
atleast thats how I feel after work sometimes..

My friend jeff said add hydraulic to his 64 wasn't that difficult. but then he has no shock towers so theres lots of room..

I'd love to just use a t-5 bell but those bells use a fork that pulls instead of push.. If I could find a push t-5 bell I'd have the best of both worlds..

I dont care for the big loop that the clutch cable set up creates.. atleast the mustang kits I looked at anyways..
