Hi all,
I have a 1969 Mustang convertible with a T5z 5 speed transmission; and am replacing the tired old 302 with a 347 stroker I had built from an 87' block and 91' GT40 heads.
I just received the engine from the builder. He provided a flex plate and said the engine was externally balanced to it. But I have a manual transmission that needs a flywheel. Can I install the flywheel as is or do I need to have it balanced to the engine?
Sorry if this is a no-brainer dilemma but this is the first time for me doing an engine swap
Thanks!
