440 cast crank

[63 Savoy]

I have a cast crank 440 and it has a weighted balancer.I have a race converter that was on my forged crank motor---can I usethis conv. if I put a weighted flex plate on the motor--Thanks Mike

If the cast crank has been internal balanced then yes..My gtx has a cast crank...It has been milled down for internal balance..

If the weighted flex plate mimics the factory weights that were on the converter, then yes. If it's wrong you will know about it immediately

I was thinking of using the B and m flex plate with the weight on it as I do not have any of the original stuff (flex and conv.)all that I have from the crank back is from the previous forged crank motor ( b&m flex plate--not weighted---and race 9.5 "---never had a cast motor--have no idea what to do --guessing that the motor has not been internally bal. because of the weighted bal. on the front-- Mike

I agree with your assessment. As long as the B&M plate is for the application (and I don't think there are any other possibilities) you should have no issues. But like I said, you will know if it's wrong.
