8 Bolt Flywheel - What engines have it?

Shannon and I finally got around to dropping the BW35 from my 67 wagon this evening. Everything went well until we ran into a flywheel dilemma.

What we found was that the existing flying wheel has an 8 bolt pattern. The m41 mated to my b18 that I plan to swap in has a six bolt wheel.

Tomorrow I will start calling salvage yards in hopes of finding an appropriate 8 bolt wheel. As I understand it a flywheel from a B20, B21, B23 or B230 will fit.

Are there any other engines / options we can try?

    74-75 B20, OHC engines to 88. Later ones have a different type, stepped instead of flat.

      The B30 flywheels for 74-75 also have 8 bolts and will fit the crank but
      not the engine (They are too big in diameter).
