Are you looking for an automatic or manual flywheel? What else are you looking for? I don't have any flywheels I can let go of but do have lots of parts. There is a manual flywheel and pressure plate on eBay last I knew. It is stock and would need rebuilt and surfaced.

I am guessing by your looking for "headers" that you are looking for performance parts, and not stock parts. Here is a link that might help-

A bit of a mix up here. I am looking for stock parts and should have said exhaust manifolds. I am not looking especially for performance parts as this engine is destined for a 1580 pound MG. The parts I have so far are for the 190 hp 62 Skylark with 10.25:1 compression ratio. Any help on stock parts would be greatly appreciated. I am also looking for a Muncie M21,22 or Borg Warner T10 transmission.

I'm looking for a bell housing, flywheel, pressure plate, front cover, valley cover, valve covers, oil pan, pump and pickup. (I would like to have the baffled oil pan if possible), 4 barrel intake manifold and oil filter housing. Alternator bracket harmonic balancer and pulleys. In other words just about everything but the long block. Thanks for any help you can give me.

I have a front cover but no oil pump on it or oil filter housing, $50
4 bbl intake manifold, $100
Core balancer, I would consider it as needing rebuilt with new rubber but worked when pulled. $30
I would have to look and see what pulleys I have. I don't have very many. Do you need 1 or 2 groove crank pulley? It also matters what water pump you are going to use, the short or long one. I would assume short as it is the most common.
Will you need a power steering pump and brackets? If power steering, you will need a 2 groove crank pulley and those are getting harder to find. Don't think I can help on the other stuff

I'm negotiating for a semi complete engine but I need to find out exactly what he has on it. I am interested in the front cover and the manifold I will get back to you. Thanks
