... with my 1988 305 TPI. I'm putting in a 1969 350. Can I still use this one? If not, does anyone have a link on Summit to which one I do need (same brand and everything)?
Will the Centerforce Stage II clutch/disk I bought work with the new flywheel?
Sorry, but no. The '69 blocks all had a 2 piece rear main seal, which has a different bolt pattern. Check the bolt holes on the back of your crankshaft where the fly wheel mounts. If it three inches center to center, then this one will work. I'm bettng the hole spacing is closer to 3.5" or so, in which case you need a different one for the earlier model blocks.
Sorry, I don't have a link for you, but I know Summit used to have a McLeod flywheel for the 2 piece rear main seal early blocks. Just make sure its the smaller diameter (153 tooth) model or it won't fit in your bell housing....
