T5 350's... Help!

Ok... I am switching my '88 Camaro from a 2.8L 5spd, to a 5spd 350. I am keeping the T5 tranny, even though its for a V6. I am using the V6 clutch. My problem: what flywheel and pressure plate do I have to use? The engine is an '89 one piece rear main, so I need the right flywheel for it to be balanced(without having to take the crank back out and taking it to a proffesional) What flywheel will match right up? Im thinking an '89 Vette? I need a straight up, no bull sh*t, answer.

If it's a 1-piece rear main seal motor, you need the flywheel for a 86-up 305 Camaro/Firebird. The pressure plate will be the same; just use the one for a 305 Camaro/Firebird, the year doesn't matter because they're all the same.

A Vette flywheel of any year will probably not work.
