The 6805 flywheel is listed for 1991 and newer 454 and 502 applications. I don't know if there's a balance difference between the earlier engines and the 1991 on up engines or not. Did you check to make sure the engine has a counterweighted balancer? Eric |

Re: Engine outa balance
It might be the pilot bearing where the tranny fits into the motor. I think its called the pilot bearing. Also check to see if the driveshaft is balanced. Sorry for being a little vague, but I'm recalling a conversation I had with my engine builder.
Good luck. -Dan

Look on the back side of the balancer in the recess by the timing cover--you should see a fairly noticeable counterweight cast into the hub of the balancer. Look at this eBay auction at the top of the picture and you'll see the counterweight. Eric |
