350 flywheel on the 455?

possible? searched, but found nothing conclusive

 

no, different in several areas

 

i've seen somewhere that the tooth count on the ring gear for the 350/v6 is 161 teeth, and that the 455 is different.

also that there is a thickness issue that caused somebody some trouble.

don't know anything about the thickness issue, could somebody chime in here?

couldn't you use a 350 starter to match up to the ring gear? mounting is the same isn't it?

any other differences ?

 

Nope, can't be done, the bolt pattern is different among many other things like balance. Jim Burek

 

Although you can't swap the flexplates, the starters do interchange. I used my old 350 starter on my 455 for almost a year till I ponied up the $$ for a good mini-starter.
