bolt pattern means nothing. you could have two flywheels both from 302's that looked identical and would both bolt to the same crank. once is a 28oz, and one is a 50oz.


you NEED to find out before you install, don't take anyones "yeah it'll work" advice - find the facts...... whats the imbalance on a 3.8? find that and you'll know

Ive been searching the net, havnt found much, but is there any markings on a flywheel that would give away its size? like a stamping or something.

according to autozone,
'86 3.8 flexplate is a Pioneer part # FRA-225
'86 5.0 flexplate is a Pioneer part # FRA-214

looks like you struck out [>:]

depending on if your motor is a one piece or two piece rear main seal..... but im confused at the different O.D.'s cause wtf they should both be mating to a C4 bellhousing and therefore the spacing to the starter teeth should be the same.

im friggen lost now

the first one was from a 73 mustang 302, the second one was from a 86 mustang 5.0..... see the difference in the balance? but the OD is still confusing the hell outta me
