    where to get tripple plate flywheel?

    Sorry never took any pics Will. It was just drilled and tapped and bolted down through the Converter bolt holes. I made an arbor out of an old Crank so it would all machine on centre. (I have a 7M one as well) If you use thicker plate you could machine the step in so it's the same as...
