    Wouldn't you need a 10.5" flywheel? I believe the 11" was big block.

    Jeep flywheels are monsters compared to the Buick one. Much heavier.

    I'd be very interested sir. Have to ask. When I built a Vette back in the day we put in a light weight flywheel. Was suppose to save HP. Does the more robust negate me going to a 4 speed? I'll still do it because the throw from 1 to 2 in a three is awful. I will purchase form you if willing to part with it.

    I've been searching the web this evening...a lot. I guess Jeep did in fact use the Buick 350 combo with a four speed and it takes a 11' flywheel. More unread about the Buick 350 it's fascinating. Dig the rarity of lifting hood and a Buick fan will see Buick power SB

    No sir. I've got trans and new clutch for it. I need the 11" flywheel I guess jeep used with its Buick 350 and four speed application.
