hmm, thanks, but it didnt tell me jack. I mean i didnt see a difference between autos and manuals. i thought they were different.



The reason i was asking was cause my father wants, for some reason(old age) an automatic. And he had a few couter weights around and had forgottten what years they were from. would it make a difference u think??

thanks



and welcome back, now theres someone to answer my stoopid questions.

The M/T cars have a rear counterweight that is integral to the flywheel. A/T cars have a separate counterweight, but it's the same thing. The rear counterweight must match the front counterweight and rotors.

Yeah, mismatching counterweights will make for an interesting show.
