You'll want a 28 oz 157 tooth flywheel.

You will also need to get a pilot bearing and a cross member as well. I'm pretty sure your driveshaft will also have to be shortened.

You will have to get a quadrant as well. The cable doesn't just bolt to the pedal, mustang steve makes a good kit.

Fulcrum is part of the bellhousing. Or is it the pivot ball? They may be the same thing.
