Steve, Telriv,
Thanks for the replies. Yes I was thinking redrilling may have to be the way to go. I didn't want to drill it though for fear of getting the holes slightly out and the whole thing way out of balance!! Isn't there a flexplate for hte 425 that accepts a 12" converter? I saw a Buick 350 flexplate on ebay but that was 13.5" across and not 14". So I guess the starter woudl not fit. I've got one of Tom Telesco's mini starters to go on but I guess they are not adjustable to line up with the half in smaller flexplate?
I mocked up the converter on the flexplate and the bolt holes are about half a hole difference and have their own depressions. I've seen the dual, and triple hole converters on ebay - I think one of the links above was one but these are flat flexplates with no pressings.
So drilling is the only way to go?
Yes Steve, I do remember the keyway on the inner mounting circle. Thanks for the comprehensive info on engine balancing. Much appreciated.
Thanks for the info on the trans mount - the rectangular one. Looks like the one that was originally on the car.
Thanks, Nick
