Help to Identify Flywheel by Bolt Pattern

[Binx]

I did a scrounge mission to Maryland last week and came up with an 8BA flywheel that I can't identify. I don't have pressure plates to compare to the pattern and have done my due diligence through the archives here, but no help. It is a Ford pattern with three paired holes. The paired holes measure 3 1/8" C/C and the spread between measures 7 7/8" C/C. I'm hoping this is for a 10" clutch.

Thanks for any info

Lonnie,
Check my thread about flywheels. There are some great pictures and help.

BTW I hope to get my flywheel back soon from the machine shop.

Thanks Shadetree. I'd read that thread earlier today. The seller also gave me a pressure plate that he thought was for my flywheel, but it was an 11". This bolt pattern is smaller. Kind of the opposite of your issue.

A 3 1/8" spread indicates a 10" Long type pressure plate. The 11" was 3 3/8" spread C/C between pairs.
