    Of course as along as I use a 500oz flywheel it should bolt to a c-4 I-6 250 tranny. Yes?

    Make sure you have a 50 OZ harmonic balancer as well...not a 28 OZ.

    Mavman, the balancer bolt on was a success! I was fortunate to have both a 28oz and a 50 oz balancer here so I was able to know for sure I got the 50 on. I do have both flex plates but that bridge will get crossed after the front end is good. just need to solve pulley probs. Thanks!

    Actually they were, but only in the 164 tooth flexplates.
