1 pc rear seal to 2pc rear seal flexplate?

I'm working on a 1986 chevy camaro and I'm dropping an older style 70's 2 pc rear seal 350 in it. I'm not sure but I am under the impression that I cannot use the flex plate and starter from the 86 305? I hope so because I was planning on using most, if not all the parts off of the 305 to swap over to my 350.

Right: cannot use the flex plate. Get one for 83-85 V8 Camaro/Firebird.

You can use your starter if your block has both holes that it needs. (blocks from before about 78 probably won't, 78-up probably will) If not, you can have your machine shop drill it for you.
