If the 454's are externally balanced, do they even make non-externally balanced flywheels for the 454? The reason I ask is that I am looking at a nice aluminum flywheel for a 454, but the owner doesn't know if it is extenally balanced. It looks to be symetrical with no weight castings or abnormal holes drilled in it. Here is a pic
Now that I posted this, I hope fellow CHR'ers don't start bidding on this now...Last edited by Gusaroo; 12-10-2006 at 06:28 AM.

That flywheel will not work. There have to be counterweights on the back side of the wheel.Ken Thomas

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
