of corse i saw the actual casting Numbers on the fly wheels but i can't find them listed in the H-D parts manuals . . .i cant look at the pinion shaft, as these photos are the ones posted in an ebay auction. . . .its hard to tell but i think that the pinion shaft is 73 & later . .

i have H-D parts Manuals "FL Models 1941-1984" & "FX Models 1971-1984" & neither one lists these casting #s , i did find this supplement Manual on ebay & am currently waiting on an answer from the seller if the 1970 fly wheels are listed or not . . . . . .hoping to find out if the casting #s are listed in this H-D supplement . . .

well if they are indeed interchangeable , i think all i would need is these set of fly wheels & a ' 73 & later nose cone cam cover , sense i couldn't the part #s for the fly wheels, i thought some one from the forum might know if this swap would work , that is taking a set of '72 cases & fitting them with a set of '70 fly wheels with '73 & later pinion shaft &'73 & up cam cover ,problem solved & i'll have a better up graded oiling mod to the crank !!
Casting numbers on parts are not synonymous with parts numbers from the book. Parts book (of any kind) will be no help.
No one (to my knowledge) has taken it upon themselves to document (and publish) all the changes and progressions of Shovelhead models from 1966 to 1984.
Donny Peterson has a 2-volume set on Shovelheads but his information on flywheel assemblies only discusses them as a set/part number and not listed individually by left and right sides
