That's nice to know info on the 6 cyl flywheels.

In a pinch the 6 bolt Poly flywheels will also work on the early Hemis. They bolt right up.......they just have spaces where the additional 2 bolts would go. If your concerned about not having 8 bolts those spaces can always be drilled, but hey even the later 440s only used 6 bolts.

I built a couple of 4 speed conversions for the early Hemi using the the Poly Flywheels. I had the flywheels turned down and fitted with a 340 ring gear to fit inside a later SB bellhousing. Even the stock pressure plate bolt holes for the Poly flywheel are correct for a stock 10 1/2 pressure plate.
