I did not think you could fit a 3.1 crank into a pre 88 block. The 3.1 crank is internally balanced and had the extra ring in the middle. Has someone else done it?

Good luck.

dont know if i can reuse the 86 flexplate ( engine will be married with the TH125C in my 87 coupe )
85-87 flexplate:
88 flexplate:
the 88 flexplate looks far more neutral balanced to me .......

You will need the 88 flexplate, the 3.1 crankshaft is internally balanced like the 88 2.8
