Hi Guys, I'm getting closer to finishing my 302 build-up. I really appreciate your previous wisdom and help. I have the 1985 carb & roller 302. 1) I need to use the STOCK crank damper due to balance

Hi Tom, You need a damper and flywheel that are suitable for the 5.0, which has a 50 oz-inch external balance requirement. The 260 flywheel and damper are weighted for a 28 oz-inch external balance s

Using the 260 flywheel would be a bad thing to do. The old 260/289 engines used a 28 oz flywheel whereas the roller engines (newer) use a 50 oz flywheel, they are NOT interchangeable. Also the timing

Ford switched to a 50 oz/in external balance in 1985 which uses a combination of counterweights in the flywheel and harmonic balancer. Therefore, the 260 flywheel can not be used. You might be able

I used a Professional Products harmonic balancer. It's available in both 28 and 50 oz-inch, short like the 260's, has both 3 and 4 hole pulley patterns, and three sets of engraved and painted timing

You mean 157 teeth, not 152. Using the 260 flywheel would be a bad thing to do. The old 260/289 engines used a 28 oz flywheel whereas the roller engines (newer) use a 50 oz flywheel, they are NOT int

I am a huge fan of aluminum flywheels. They generally weigh 60% less than the steel flywheels and have a lower polar moment of initeria. This lower moment of inertia lets the engine rev up and down f

My 2 cents: 1) Timing marks on the 302 crank damper should be ok. If memory serves, timing is 10 degrees btdc with vacuum disconnected. It should be on the damper. 2) an aftermarket 157 tooth flywhee

Yes the 302's are 6 bolt, only the 260's and early cross over block 289's run the 5 bolt. The problem for owners of the close ratio box is the narrow bolt pattern top loader bellhousing. the MKII us

One thing to think about is those running the close ratio gearbox it might not be a great solution for driveability. I have run aluminum on the race Mustang (McLeod), now an ultra light tilton with g

I agree with Gary on aluminum flywheels. I've had one in my Tiger for 30+ yrs now. The rpms go up and down so quick you need to learn how to shift all over again. And you have to be a bit more carefu
