again...
I got the flex plate for my 6.9 a few weeks ago and the deminsons are 14.23 od, crank measures at 1.75 and its a 164 teeth. I got the motor out yesterday I cecked if the flex plate if it will fit. And welll it didn't. The crank on the motor measure 2 and a eighth, and my flex plate was a little smaller than the fly wheel. No one in town or any of are suppliers seem to get one that I can find. I called the local napa and they said there's one for a 94-97 that measure's 2 and 1/8 at crank 155 teeth and 15 1/4 od of it, but they can't get. What should I do I'm trying to adapt my e-40d to. I really need some advice, anyone???

I think they sold you wrong flex plate. I have a 6.9 and a 7.3 idi sitting in shop right now
both have 2"1/8 crank I donn't have flex plate but but the solid flywheels are 15 and 3/4 inches or there abouts and 155 or 156 teeth. The 94 to 97 is a power stroke and would not fit anyhow. The flex plate has to be same diamiter and teeth as solid flywheel the starter only sits in one position

Ya i got all that. See the crank is a 9 bolt, and they only can find a 10 bolt pattern or a six bolt. I'mma call one of the wreckin yards on monday that we do work for and see if they can find one. This one item is kickin my *** . The one from the ford dealers in town are 200 bucks but they can't find the specs for me so monday I'll try again

Hey guys, i'm a newbie off the FTE Forum, I just got done fixin my 1991 F250 with the E40D and had to go to ford to get the damn flexplate, cost me $185 after taxes but went thru 4 flexplates between napa and o'reillys, finally went to ford and apparently its a factory only part. I hope for your wallet's sake this isnt the same for you but i would bet with that E40D it's the same deal. Good Luck!!

ya its the same deal up here I'm havin one of are wreckin yards that we do work for look for one. I never really payed much attention to the injectors but for my sake they are delphi BB, saves me money. I knwo the guy when he rebuilt the motor 3000 miles ago put a new ip and injectors but didn't know they were BB. Made my day saves me money
