Like the title says? I need to pick up a cast crank van with engine. It has the 833OD in it.

I am pretty sure they are the same, yes, as long as you are speaking of the 67-up (or 68-up?) big hub forged crank.

Yes, they interchange as long as the register is the same.

As before all of them interchange, in fact I have a flywheel from a 1978 Volare in my other duster and it's the same as the 1974 and 1976 versions I have...

That being said...I have one from a 1981 Dodge Pickup...it's slightly heavier and has a thicker "ring" machined on the body just back from the ring gear... I think this was to help motivate the 5000 lb truck vs. the 3500 lbs car... I notice with this flywheel my "heavy" duster launches harder and seems to be a bit more 'torquey'...the regualr car flywheel seems to spool up better but just doesn't have that "grunt" inbetween shifts....

FYI,

Sounds like when I get the van fly wheel I need to weigh it. Step on the bathroom scale. I don't have any loose car ones laying around.
