Probably a dumb question, but, Will the C6ZE-A flywheel accept both 10 and 10 1/2 clutches

Hipo or non-hipo. I've read several old posts in regards to this casting but not sure what the findings were. I've found one with the right date code but won't bid unless this unit was used in hipo motors. Thanks

The C6ZE-A flywheel has an engineering number of C6ZE-6375-A, which cross-references to C3OZ-6375-D, which has as an application the 1966 Mustang Special from 7-1-66 to 10-1-66. It is supposed to be marked with the letter A and have a 160-tooth ring gear. This info exhausts my knowledge base. (Past experience has led me to make allowances for stamped number formats, such as A or C6ZE-A. Also, dates never give their basis, such as car scheduled date, engine assembly date, or some other benchmark date only know by Ford. I consider all dates as guides and not in concrete. I also don't know the casting number of these flywheel. It could be C3OE-6380-B, but maybe not.)

I believe that the particular flywheel in question is one that just ended on Ebay and has a casting number of C6ZE 6380 A with a stamping of C7ZE-A. The date code is 2C22 which at the very earliest would have been March 22, 1972. It is definitely not an original flywheel however it does match as a Ford replacement Hipo flywheel in the Ford parts manuals.
