I'm 90% sure you have the smaller 153 tooth flywheel. Only trucks got the bigger one and it won't even fit in the bell housing if I remember correctly.

Reason I'm asking is I'm getting ready to have the inards balanced of the 388ci I'm building. And I'm down to getting flexplate and balancer. Im still going to talk to B&M but I've heard that the #3970010 blocks use a 168 tooth, if thats so I so hope that it does fit in the bellhousing. I by all means want to use my TH700R4 trans. Just wondering what came stock though in case they asked.
