Hi,
one point of concern when modifying a 540 ci BBC automotive engine for marine use is the flywheel.
My engine builder who might be experienced in automotive racing engines but knows very little about modifying them to marine engines supplied among others a wrong flywheel (see foto).
I could rebalanced the old ext. balanced Mercruiser flywheel PN 230-5534, but this was not the professional way.
Has anybody used the HAYS marine steel flywheel PN 10-320 with the Mercruiser drive plate, and/or are there any other options.
Ring gear must be located on the rear face.
Thanks
Joe
