I have a 304 and am wanting to bolt it to a 727 auto trans. Are the flexplates for a 304 and 360 the same? Or are they balanced differently? Thanks

AMC v8's are externally balanced, so 1 from a 360 may be shaky. You could probably have it balanced to your 304 though

Click to expand...

Good luck finding someone to do that around here for less than the cost of a NEW flexplate... a bud went thru it for a 401 to TH400... IIRC, he found someplace online that offered flexplates for all the engines for less than $75 each. I searched, but couldn't find his post.

Have you called Bill yet?
 
Maaaan! I had the same problem. I had a 304 and was going to put a 727 to it. Advance has two different flexplates that are weighted differently for the same engine. I posted on here and no one could tell me which one I should use. Good luck and I will wtch this post to see what you come up with.
P.S. I sold my 304 because of it!
 
Just wanted to make sure it's the right one. Ease up off my grille Caver...:fuck-you:
 
What you need is the FRA-108...the 118 is for the 258.
Do an Autozone search for an 1981 CJ7 with 304 and auto (TF727). Comes up with a FRA-108
 
That one is only $31 at Advance. Why did yours cost so much? Thanks for the link.
