    I think the 6cyl engines were at 0 imbalance. I would think a stock 3sp flywheel for a 250 will work just fine.

    I've searched through autozone, oreilly, napa, summit and rockauto but all I could find were flexplates.

    Try Green Sales, Inc. or Rock Auto. I don't have their urls, but google will find them. They should have them.

    I can't find a flywheel that will work so can I just get a 28 oz one machined down to 0
