FYI..Which flywheel do you have

Most know this but I thought I would throw this up for reference.

There are different 'bolt' flywheels that came on the 99-04 2V 5-speed cars. There is a way to tell which one you have without pulling the tranny. You can count your cam cover bolts.

11 cam cover bolts = 6 bolt flywheel (Windsor engine)
13 cam cover bolts = 8 bolt flywheel (Romeo engone)

This obviously does not apply to the 4v cars because they were all 8 bolt.

From Rob's post below...

Not sure about the 96-98 cars, but

99-00 Windsor motors have 8 bolt flywheels
01+ GT have 6 bolt flywheels
Bullitt's--6 bolt flywheels
Mach1--auto have 6-bolt flywheels
Mach1--5speed have 8-bolt flyweels
All Cobra's have 8-bolt flywheels
