Do all of the AMC V8's have externally balanced rotating assemblies? I've worked on a friend's 304 V8 and it was externally balanced.

304-401 are all basically the same setup.

The Harmonic Balancers and Flexplates & Flywheels are all balanced for each engine. None are interchangable from one motor to the next. YIKES!!!! Such a common mistake and oh such a bad one!!!! :eek:

Sorry, I was unclear - answered the question in my mind, but not with my fingers. I meant they were all externally balanced. CrazyJeepman is right, they are not interchangeable among all engine sizes. Gotta chedk the parts manuals to make sure which go with what.

My Bad :(
