Crankshaft And Flywheel Assembly
Crankshaft and flywheel assembly for the bottom end, catalog number 70-5869 (also listed as E5869).
70-5869 is the crankshaft and flywheel assembly, the rotating mass at the heart of the bottom end. It's what the connecting rods hang from and what the primary drive and timing gears take their motion off of. This assembly shows up in the parts books under the figure for crankshaft and connecting rods, so it's a bottom-end component through and through, not something you're swapping casually.

The earlier factory number for this same part is E5869, so if you're working from an older parts book or a title that lists it that way, you're looking at the same physical assembly under 70-5869 now.
Our catalog record ties this to appearances spanning 1965 through 1968, but it doesn't spell out a specific model beyond that. If you're rebuilding a bottom end and trying to match this to your particular engine, give us a call and we'll confirm fitment before you order — a crank and flywheel swap isn't the place to guess.
