i dont know the weight of the MK2 fly wheel but i have a 1600GT engine in my MK1.

Recently the ring gear came of my fly wheel and as luck would have it i had a spare Flywheel which came from a stage 3 crossflow ( lightened fly wheel )

I have found this makes no difference at all .

To best of my knowledge there's no difference in STD flywheels their all circa 16lbs in old money.

From 68- the only difference listed is for the early 1100 escort smaller diameter clutch (ie placement of locating dowels).

Mk1 Cortina/Anglia etc have a 4 bolt fitting which was superceded by 6 bolt.

I have been sold one which is 22lbs or 10 kg, and I am led to believe a cortina one is 18lbs or 8kg so I don't want to fit this one if it is wrong so I hope someone can enlighten me.

What are the numbers cast in it? Might be able to tell what it's off.

Ok as best as I can make out it is  691M6398 or could be a B

AR or AB and near this is 1F8  All numbers on the back

 near the ring gear is 751DA which looks more etched into it

I think it may be 1100 or 1300 crossflow.

I hope you can check it out as it looks like I need another flywheel, Do you want to sell one Lotuscops:biggrin:

Of course I can sell one - is it 6 bolt ? I just checked & I have 4 x 4 bolt ones only, no 6 bolt versions - all are 15 lb or 18lb weights.

Unfortunately I am going to need 6 bolt, As it is mk2 cortina.

That's a 1.3/1.6 xflow 68-70  an 1100 one would start 2733E.
