IF the flywheel has a dual bolt pattern as some do you will be able to use the flywheel. The difference is that the 390 engines use a 1 1/8" 10 spline input shaft and the 427 and 428 uses a 1 3/8" input shaft. Nearly everything looks like it will work but, the input shaft sleeve that the throw out bearing rides on is a larger diameter which requires a larger throw out arm, which requires a larger pivot for the throw out arm. All this adds up to a lot of unnecessary expense. I suggest that you trade this really good stuff to someone that can use it without problems and get a correct flywheel and clutch assembly. Oh yeah, there's also the matter of clearance inside the bell housing, 427s and 428s had a bit more clearance built into them for the 11 1/2" clutch assembly. That has been addressed in this forum recently I believe. |
