Will a flywheel from a 218 Dodge six be balanced the same as a large one from a 265 truck engine?
Are all Dodge flat sixes balanced the same?
Happy New Year to all.....

I put the heavier flywheel on a 230 and it didn't affect it at all. I had the rotating assembly balanced,later. But, the early 4 bolt flywheel's are some lighter. I don't know how much. Hope this helps.

I am wanting to go with the smaller flywheel on my 265. Sounds like it should work. Thanks.

Are the bolt patterns the same?

The patterns are the same. The four bolt crank will bolt to a six bolt flywheel. The opposite is also true. When I first got mine it had a four bolt flywheel bolted to a six bolt crank.
