small block flywheel is 6 bolt,big block flywheel is 8 bolt.
clutches are different dia so i guess that the flywheel is also,there is a company that make a 6 bolt flywheel in the big block dia so maybe they do one the other way round.

so i need f18 or f16 gearbox,t hats fine, and clutch for it, thats fine .. and so big block engine garbox uses c18/c20 driveshafts .. yes ? so x14/x16/or x18xel would use my normal f13 gearbox ??

Isn't C18XE a small block? Wasn't it the C18SE that was the big block?

Edit - Bloody hell I have confused myself there, being 'C18's' they must of course both be big block, C16SE was small block.

C18xe is big block.
X18xe1 is small block.
Z18xe is small block.
In theory all gearboxes will fit all engines, just you need either a custom clutch plate or find one that will work.

Also wrong as the later big blocks flywheels are 6 bolt as they won't fit a c20xe/let
