HELP! external balance on 383 stroker
I put a 383 into a corvette with a 12" flywheel(manual trans)...now i cant find an aftermarket external balaced flywheel...can i add weight to the existing flywheel and have it balanced(it needs 250grams offset)..by welding weight or drilling and inserting studs..hate to think my only alternative is to pull the engine and find an internal balance crank, which means getting a forged crank as the cast ones are all externall..can i have a flywheel made for that, Im in Detroit...help....I found a smaller balancer for the engine at Triton. so i thought someone might make the flywheel, surely someone has done this before...

Re: HELP! external balance on 383 stroker (crankshafts)
Lingenfelter has a flywheel just for this application. It is made by Hays has the correct 153 tooth count for your 84 and is designed for the 400 crank used to make a 383. Part # LN0330, last catalog price was $299.95. Hopes this helps you. :steering:
