Thread: flexplate interchange

Tweet

This may have been answered before, but..I removed s 250 ci six from one of my trucks.and I'm putting in a 327 v-8......can I use the same automatic flexplate??....some one said no and another said yes.....?????

Just one small addition to what streets said (which should not affect what your doing). The 400 small block and 454 big block flywheels/flex plates are counterweighted as the engines are externally balanced. Use of one of these on an internally balanced engine or not using one on a 400 or 454 will set up a bad vibration problem. I just mention this because I still occasionally run into this on some cars.

Thanks Streets and Mike.......at least I save money there..hehe..now I can get the old 327 into my truck........I am big fan of 327's.......
