The flywheel is part of the Street Twin kit. It is specially machined for the stand-offs for the floater plate. The original Street Twin was available with steel or aluminium flywheel, Diaphragm or Borg&Beck/Long hybrid PP, various disc options.
Their newer RST and RXT street twins are smaller diameter with an adapter disc to mate to a standard flywheel. Can likely find one that would work, but may need some custom work for TOB and fork. Not sure if McLeod still makes flywheels for AMC? Best to give them a call. Part numbers for aluminium flywheel for standard clutches were: 565000 - 6 cylinder neutral balance 565100-00 4.5 OD crank register (early) 565101-00 4.625 (late) They also had SFI steel flywheels: 465000 - 6 cyl neutral balance 465100-00 4.5 OD register (early) 465101-00 4.625 (late) The V8 flywheels are c'balanced, but need to be balanced to your engine or match-balance to existing flywheel. Mondello also made AMC aluminium flywheels, but don't have part number handy. Not really sure what to suggest for a T5 to live behind a stroker with blower? Maybe a soft-lok or similar drag clutch. I expect even an upgraded gear set will struggle ... maybe less so on the street as it will be tough to get traction. Suggest check the Mustang forums to see what they use in blower cars. Hope this helps, RD
