The 400 small block is an externally balanced engine, so you have to make sure that the flywheel you get is an externally balanced flywheel.....

Another thing to know is that a 454 is an externally balanced engine as well but takes a different flywheel than a 400 small block. I'm just letting you know in case somebody says that they are the same, they are not.
