428 Question

I have a 428 (verified) that i am putting in my 1966 F100 to replace the current 352. I understand that i have to use a different flywheel due to the difference in the way the engines are balanced. The engine is all original (came out of a 1966 Galaxie) and in very good shape. My question is what is the size of the bolt for the crank pulley/harmonic balancer? I don't seem to own a socket that fits.
