Default autozone flywheel?

well my transmission is making a knocking noise coming from the bellhousing, it is either the flywheel is cracked or a bolt came loose that connects the flywheel to the engine (i have already checked torque converter bolts)

it my flywheel is cracked, im looking ahead to get something ordered

I went on autozone's website and they have numerous flywheels ranging from $30 to $150

http://www.autozone.com/autozone/cat...t=transmission

will I be ok with the $30 one?

I bought the one from autozone(Pioneer brand) and owned it for three minutes. When I took it out of the box in the parking lot and saw what a piece of junk it was I went back in and got a refund. It was extenally ballanced with a big ugly piece of metal welded on to it. I went to the nearest GM dealer and ordered one from a 98 model, it was worth the extra coin.

You can get a 98 cheap it has the extra holes if you do a T400 swap that why people want the 98. I personally bought the tci SFI flexplate its heavy duty.
