If you are referring to the flywheel best to do a search about it. You have to be very careful regarding them.

A percentage of the 123 fw are balanced with the crank. Out of five vehicles I have been in contact with in which we moved fw from one crank to another one was not neutrally balanced.

The danger is significant enough though that I will never do it without checking what the fw from the crank I want to use is in terms of balance.

If you get it wrong you will have to pull the tranny and fw to correct it.
