390 flywheels are easily offset balanced.
By Dave Shoe - 05/03/2002 2:23:36 PM; IP 12.2.11.131
It's pretty easy to offset-balance a 390 flywheel. You've just got to drill a bunch of holes in the flywheel.

For performance, stock Ford flywheels are not recommended, as iron flywheels are known to grenade at the darndest times. An explosion proof bellhousing is a #1 line of defense, and the 2nd stage upgrade is a steel flywheel. Third in line is a performance pressure plate which won't split apart if a shift is missed.Just be careful when dealing with stock flywheels and bellhousings in a high-revving FE.
