I am trying to replace my worn 289 with a late model crate engine from SVO. The engine I am wanting to use is a long block 302 with GT-40P heads. This engine comes with 50oz. damper with a four bolt pattern instead of the 28.2oz. with a three bolt pattern like on my '67 289. Has anybody encountered this problem? Also, I would like to know what flex plate I can use (I am running a C-4 trans).
