Fred,
I agree this is likely not a HiPo flywheel and is missing the Brinnel test mark. I say "likely" only because I wonder about the possibility it is a legit HiPo from a batch where not every flywheel was tested. Wasn't sure if every part cast in the same batch would be tested?

When I was in the process of rebuilding the engine in my 66 GT350 a friend asked if I was going to install a scattershield. I said "no, the car did just fine as a B/P race car for 6 years on the original bell housing so should be good".
He called a few days later and said "come on over, got something to show you". Figured it was some rare part he scored. But when I got there he showed me a big gouge in his concrete driveway and several 1-3" holes in the siding of his house about 20 ft. away.
He explained that he had taken his 66 GT350 (early Hertz 4-speed) for a drive, and after opening the garage door gave the car a throttle blip as he started pulling in when there was big explosion. Apparently he determine the pressure plate exploded, destroying the bell housing with most of the shrapnel going down and bouncing off the driveway ricocheting into the house. Some of the fragments also went up cutting the brake line running along the firewall and denting the rare original all steel hood.
Since I had my engine out and was installing new brake lines, I went back the next day and gave him my original lines.
When I got back home I located and immediately bought a Cobra scattershield.
Not used on K-code Mustang but posting here due to it's extreme rarity in case anyone is looking...
Likely one of the rarest Ford 4100 models produced, the only known date of manufacture for the C4OF-AT carburetors was the last week of April 1964. These were used only on 1964-1965 HiPo 289 Fairlanes with automatic transmission, and I believe 13 of the 15 automatic 289 Cobras. Will need a complete rebuild but looks to be totally intact including the original tag.
Asking $4500 which includes shipping and insurance. Reasonable offers, interesting trades considered. Please email or PM if interested or want more photos.
Thanks,
Dave

Got it, thanks for the help Dan!
Probably a silly question and the answer is right in front of my face but...how the heck do you PM someone on this site? Or send a member an email? I can't find an obvious way to do this. Is it part of "Conversations"?
Thanks,
Dave
Not HiPo specific, but the In Search of Mustangs website has a comprehensive Registry, you can register your Kar there...
I've had this for years, was planning to use it on my 66 while detailing the original spacer but no longer need it. Don't know what the original application is, possibly truck or perhaps a period Ford generic part based on the original larger 3/4" water pump snout hole which allows a sleeve to be used for 5/8" pump snout applications as well. I've installed the 5/8" sleeve so ready to go on a 289 water pump.
Total length 2.39", length between mounting surfaces: 2.11". This is only 1/32" longer that an OE HiPo spacer which would never be noticed when installed. If you don't have a correct HiPo spacer this would be a great alternative, excellent condition for it's age.
$30, USA shipping included.
Thanks,
Dave
I have the original Mustang owner's manual for 6F07K333719, would like to reunite it with the car if possible. Car was purchased 5/14/66 from Marv Tonkin Ford in Portland, OR.
Saw this today, no affiliation...

Back in 1980 it was a popularly held belief there were 6 convertibles built at the end of 66 GT350 production. Now we know there were only four, 6S2375 (green), 6S2376 (yellow), 6S2377 (red), and 6S2378 (blue). As mentioned the first continuation was numbered 6S2381. As Fred indicated all are accounted for according to the latest 66 SAAC Registry.
