I have a -71 roadrunner , 440engine - 4 speed , I have bought a new set of Centerforce flywheel 143 tooth and I have a powermaster ministarter , these two does not fit together !! Could the flywheel be too big ?
It seems that the axel in the starter gets too close to the flywheel and is not possible to line up . Any solutions ? please advice ,

Could you possibly have a true 11" flywheel and a bellhousing for the 10.95" unit? I belive there were 2 different housings for the 2 different flywheel applications. Double check that. the true 11" flywheel is the older variant, and many suppliers I've seen refer to the 10.95" one as 11", but it's not the true 11" unit.

I'm not sure if there's a difference between the tooth count on the 10.95" and the 11".

Thanks 71GTX, that's exactly the info I was wanting to give him. I knew there were some differences, but couldn't remember the applications.
