Does anyone know if there is a balance weight that's supposed to be on the flywheel?

 

Last model 350s and all 400s. Don't put a later 350 flywheel on an earlier motor. Vibration was so bad on mine women had orgasims as I drove by.

 

This is from a 76, but I can't figure out where it mounts.
As far as the other thing, that might not be so bad...no need for flowers/dinner/being nice. lol

 

A 76 wouldn't need one. The late 80s flywheel I had, the wieght was cast into it.

 

Cool, thanks

 

So, I misplaced the clamshell motor mounts that bolt to the engine. When I went to get a set at the junkyard, the guy that runs the jy said there are different types for sbc and to be careful as I might get a set that wouldn't fit my application. Anyone have any experience with this?

 

I think its just truck and car but I could be wrong. I did try to use clam shells from a pickup on my 78. They were on the motor when I pulled it from the truck, so I left them on thinking they would work. Nope, the motor would only drop in on one side at a time.

 

I got rid of my 77 today. Traded a rusted out shell (literally), no windows, no trim no locks, nothing but the shell and the bumpers for a GAS POWERED IR air compressor in good shape. My wife is mad as hell, but I think I made a pretty good trade. What do yall think?

 

Well, I finally got some work done on my motor. Got my rings gapped, pistions in and heads on.

 

LOL how many cuts do you have? Gapping rings is the most boring thing to do for me. I always find a chair and sit down before my back starts to hurt. Congrats one step closer, its down hill from here.
