internal-external balance? swap question.

I have a 302 out of an 93 Grand Marquis. It came with an auto trans.
I want to put it in my sons truck.

I have the pressure plate, clutch, bell housing, starter, ect from a 71 F100 302.(I kept everything).

Are these motors compatible?

Thanks

You need a late model balanced flywheel. The 93 is for sure a 50oz balance and the 71 is a 28oz. Everything else should work. Make sure you put a pilot bushing in the crankshaft of the 93 motor, since it was an auto and probably doesn't have one.

It's still the 50 oz. imbalance flywheel that you need. 81 was the transition year from the early balance

Trucks must have a different flywheel than cars,, The flywheels I am finding use a 10" clutch and are smaller in diameter.

I am guessing there were not alot of 302-manual tranny trucks built in the early 80's. The guy at the auto salvage place said he would have order it from out of state and it would cost $150!!
