One of my friends, has a 68' coupe, with an 87 302. He wants to bolt it up to the original C4 (I believe).

Will it work? If so, what will he have to change? Will, he also have to change his motor mounts? Or will the engine just bolt right on?

Thanks guys!

He will need to use a balanced flywheel (50 oz) and will need the mounts for the 68, not the 87. The distributor gear will need to be changed if he's keeping the O.E. 68 model.

Thanks. IS there anything else I need to know? But, all he wants to do, is just get it running. So, if that is all..thanks.

Yup, that's about it. He will need to figure something out for the pulley setup, but that's cake with a call the March Performance.
