I am putting a BBC into my 66 C30 and was wondering if I HAVE to use the SBC flywheel or can I use a BBC flywheel (153 teeth vs 168 teeth)? My concern is that the starter will be out of location with the larger flywheel if I use the original starter mounted on the bell housing. Or will a block mount starter work with the stock bell housing? Thanks!
