Hey guys . I'm just wondering , is the flywheel for a 65 GS 401 3 or 4 speed the same since the 3 speed is a ford top loader ?   :help:

Yup, flywheel and even bellhousing is the same between 3 speed and 4 speed.
The 65-66 Skylark GS bellhousing is different than the big-car bellhousing, but it'll work with a little grinding. I think Brian once did that.
