Can someone guess what this used to be?

Yikes

Cool!

Yup, from a turbo 350. That didn't take long.

No such thing as a "flywheel" in a Turbo 350, they have a sheetmetal "flex plate".

Maybe it's a flywheel from a 350 that was turbocharged.

Flywheel- Maybe from tractor or something like that...

Well it ain't from a Turbo 350. Cuz they don't have a flywheel. They have a flex plate.

And it's not a standard V8 flywheel either.

It's has to be a forged STEEL flywheel of some sort. As a cast wheel would crack into pieces after all those shots.

If I had to guess. It is from a BIG tractor or forklift.
The bolt pattern tells me that it probably isn't from a car engine.

Bottom line... I duuno.

If that is cast iron there is a ricochet hazard you should be aware of.

this is what I was thinking, ive been hit with a ricochet in my right shoulder...I don't play around anymore.

That is a heavy piece.
I have 2 steel plates I bring to the range.
It is only about 3/16" thick made from mild steel.
A 30-30 round will make Swiss cheese out of it.

The above is a 1/4" plate that gets .308 and 7.62 by 54 tossed at it.
The interesting part is the .308 holes are noticeably smaller than the 7.62 x 54
