Default Flywheel weight for 454
It is built out to a 468. Looks like my choices are 30 and 33 for a 454.

Just going by memory, but I thought GM made a 454 (externally balanced) version of the 15# 427 (L88) flywheel.

Does anyone know the weight of the stock cast iron flywheel?

I can tell you that a factory MA6 dual disc 454 flywheel weighs exactly 23.4 lbs.
