Looking for 289 K code or non K 289 manual flywheel minimum thickness spec or the thickness of an NOS flywheel if anyone has one they could measure in inches, thanks in advance, chuck.

Chuck, An NOS flywheel varies from .845 to .865 depending on where you measure it on the outer part of the face.

Thanks Fred, i needed a reference spec to measure from, the 65 shop manual section 8-20 states that .045 is the minimum amount of stock to remove from a flywheel before replacing it . so i guess you would need to measure the flywheel in 3-4 locations then take an average thickness and subtract from that to see how much stock has been removed from it and still be above disgard spec.
