Default flywheel option

I want to mate a T56 from a 96 Camaro LT1 to my 71 400 SBC
the 96 LT1 flywheel is a one piece rear man seal (too small)
the pressure plate is pull style - clutch hub faces flywheel - that's ok
the clutch disc is 11 inches - that's ok
the bell housing is for the smaller 153 teeth flywheel - that's ok
any thoughts ? ( a McCleod 460370 costs more than the T56 )

think I used the 700107 DF kit would have to double check its on a Gen 1 383. You have external balance on your car? Something to address...call centerforce and ask them

The McCleod scattershield is worth every cent, literally bolt on didnt have to use a dial indicator. The CF flywheel is steel but wont take a chance on those feet lol
It uses a conversion flywheel so it fits the 2 pc rear main and takes the LTx clutch. Whats it going in?

The pressure plate bolts you will need to get from McCleod they are the only ones that make them. If you need help putting parts together pm me. Using hyd clutch or linkage?
