Maybe he has a 428 crank with external balance (on the flywheel) and must reinstall the flywheel exactly where iy was.

No, you can see from the oil galley that he has a Side Oiler.

And make the 454 combo. I know that he didn't do that. I was just wondering why he marked what looks like the Oillite bronze pilot bearing. Chas. is pretty anal about this stuff, so I'm betting he had a reason....

All Ford flywheels are clocked....they will only go on one way. I always spin them around so all the holes line up, then mark the crank and the flywheel so they will go back on quickly.
