Yes but only if you change the angle of the center intake bolts by elongating the holes.

Well if its an 86 TPI, it'll bolt up without changing a thing. That goodwrench 350, IIRC, has the old bolt style not the new one.

Correct.

However, it also has the 2-piece rear main seal, so the '86 flex plate won't fit it. Need an '82-'85 3rd gen auto flex plate.
