    Hi guys. This is on my daily driver a108. Right now it has this 318 thats cobbled together from a few different generations of the LA engine. It's also just tired. I have the A745 behind it and want to know if my replacement needs to have been from a manual transmission vehicle with the crank drilled accordingly fora pilot bushing or not. Also If I go 360... where to get the balanced flywheel? And finally, since Im in there anyway... is our clutch the 23 spline or the elusive 10 spline that the sweptlines use? This is a 1968 trans. Thanks in advance guys.

    As far as I know,you can have a crank drilled for a pilot bushing if it is'nt already.
    360 flywheels just have a couple of holes drilled for balance so a regular 318/340 flywheel can be modified to work.
    Not sure about the clutch,unfortunately.
