4.9 engine swap
I have a 95 f 150 with a 4.9, the rod came out side the block so I picked up a 4.9 on Craigslist out of a 94 f 150 went to take off the fly wheel to put the flex plate on and only 4 of the six bolts line up... does anyone now what this could be maybe after market crank thanks

Did you try indexing it different? ie Take all the bolts out and turn just the flexplate 1 or 2 or 3 holes until all the holes line up.

Are you sure you have the correct side of the flexplate facing out?
