The one I would consider standard measures 9 3/4 inches on the outside with a 3/8 inch wide belt groove. This one is marked 75030 ASSY. I also have one with 2 pulleys. At the rear is one 8 3/8 inch on the outside with a 1/2 inch wide groove. Just ahead of this groove is one that is 8 5/8 on the outside with a 3/8 inch wide groove. This one is marked LW15602 ASSY. This flywheel would not work on my IO-360-C1E6 with the front mounted prop governor because the ID of the pulley interfered with the case. These both are for an IO-360 with prop bolt/bushing holes about 3/4 inch diameter. Hope this helps. There are surely more flywheels than this out there.

Steve Do you mean Permatex HYLOMAR HPF Part No. 25249? This worked very well for me with the silk thread.

The HYLOMAR seems to be a thick grease that does not really set up, I think. Great stuff. do not archive Dan In a message dated 4/10/2006 7:11:52 A.M.

It sets but doesn't harden, I wouldn't call it a grease or use it in my wheel bearings, yuk, yuk. The story I got is that it was the only thing that would seal big oil leaks on RR merlins, the big boys use it. Randy L.

We have huge stocks of Racing formula, and Universal Blue AF( sic. HPF ) in stock around the world if you cant find it at your nearest stockist just e-mail info@hylomar.com and give us their contact details and we will show them the error of their ways or find a stockist near you who is carrying Hylomar! Sooooo..... apparently, Permatex has discontinued Hylomar in their product line? Regards, Randy L.

Most auto speed shops carry it inasmuch as engine builders have been using it ever since Rolls licensed its manufacture. I have used it on aircraft engines for over ten years. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Randy L.
