Rear counterweight for the FD

hi Guys,
a few months ago i ordered a rear counterweight for my Fd because i wanted to fit it with a light weight flywheel.
i ordered the N351-11-521 counterweight and i received a counterweight with the N3Y2-11-52X part number.
for my litle research i found that this counterweight is for the 86-88 model.
what is going on? do the 86 counterweight fits the fd or it is a mistake?
can someone please let me know what the two counterweight weights?
thanks
i apreciate any help

Do not put the S4 CW on your FD engine. It is not weighted the same and will cause your rotating assembly to be out of balance.

Mazdatrix.com has a guide to all the counterweights with pictures of them so you can tell them apart.

Hit up the 2nd gen for sale section, the '89-91 auto tranny counterweight is the same as the FD's counterweight and they go cheaper .
