MD WTB Flywheel cover 72 4X4 /w turbo 350 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**72 Super** · 09-30-2012, 08:56 PM

I am looking for a nice clean Flywheel cover for a 72 4x4 with a Turbo 350. Also need the correct mounting screws.

Thanks,
Ray

Went thru the same process, looking for the same. From what I have found out and been told by several board members the 350TH flywheel/dust cover is the same back then for 2wd or 4wd. I got one from a fellow board member and it fit fine to the transmission which is still hooked to the transfer case. Now have to look thru my many bolt cans to find the correct fastener. When I find the correct bolt I will post my findings.

**72 Super** · 10-13-2012, 08:48 PM

Ironhorse, I also believe they are the same too. How is your changeover coming along??

Thanks,
Ray

The change over is doing pretty well but got a bit more involved than first planed. After removing the sm465/np205 combo decided to give the engine a "freshen" so to speak. Pulled it, put it on a stand and started the engine compartment degrease/clean up. Changing the oil pan gasket, rear main seal, timing chain and gear, water pump, power steering pump and hoses, changed the 2 bbl Rochester and intake to a Edelbrock Performer and a 600 Edelbrock carb, going to a Pertronix dist. conversion, installing a 4x4 dip stick, tall oil fill tube, stock '71-'72 style valve covers and a 4 core radiator.

Also giving the engine, accessories and brackets a new coat of paint. Chevrolet orange on the block and valve covers, water pump, timing chain and semi-gloss black on the brackets and such. Intake is powder coated silver/aluminum color. Installed new studs on the 4x4 straight down manifolds with POR15 cast iron Gray. Whew, this project got more involved than I first had in mind but then a LOT of my projects do that.

Ray, did you find you a 4wd? I will check tomorrow I may have a cover.

I have a newer plastic universal cover I bought from summit that I did not use. $20 shipped. It will work with a th350 or th400.

Thanks, but I would like to find a factory original 350 cover. I know a turbo 400 cover will work too, but the starter cut out is wider.

Thanks,
Ray

**hilljob26** · 10-14-2012, 07:16 AM

i have one off of my 70 jimmy,,would that work for ya,,it has a th350,,,i will need to look at it again to make sure its not broke anywhere

4oldcars · 10-14-2012, 10:20 AM

I think I have one somewhere in the garage and I'm close enough you can pick it up. I'll check today. If I have one, it's yours.

4oldcars · 10-14-2012, 12:33 PM

I found a lot of things, but no dust cover.

**tll74** · 10-14-2012, 12:39 PM

I can do a nice original metal one for 30.00 shipped, Thanks, Tom

Tom, I will wait to hear from Bill. If he doesn't have one, I am interested in yours. Is it an original turbo 350 cover? any pictures?

thank you,
Ray

pickupman · 10-14-2012, 08:50 PM

Ray, sorry I did not make it down to the garage today. I will tomorrow eve. I know I did have some NOS ones at one time if I didn't get rid of them all. will let you know as soon as I can. You will have to shoot me some pic of what you found

**tll74** · 10-15-2012, 01:36 AM

Ray, yes I have one off a TH350. Just let me know if it gets to me and I'll post a pic. Thanks, Tom

pickupman · 10-15-2012, 05:29 PM

Ray, here is a picture of the one I have. let me know if interested. you can email me if you like about it. It does have a few wrinkles in it from tooling

**72 Super** · 10-15-2012, 06:42 PM

Bill, If that is an turbo 350 cover and NOT a turbo 400 cover, I am interested. Pm coming your way.

thank you,
Ray

**Ironhorse** · 10-17-2012, 07:18 PM

Ray, I found out today that the 350TH mated to my np205 actually uses the same bolts or fasteners as is used with the oil pan and timing chain cover. I think they are 1/4 - 20 thread. I have several of them spare if you are in need. May not work on your transmission but threaded in very nicely on mine. If you do not have any PM me your address and I will mail some to you in a bubble pack mailer, no charge, FREEBIE. Just paying it forward for some things I have received FREEBIE style from fellow board members.
