Default harmonic balancer question

can I use a 50oz flexplate and a 50oz balancer from a 302 on my 351w or does it have to be the 28oz stuff.

I would imagine the 28oz because the crankshaft is probably balanced for 28oz.

yes you can use it till it shakes the thing apart. No, really I would not do it all 351w are 28oz balance and the later year 5.0 are 50oz so it would not be real wise to do..

Okay so I found out the flexplate came out of a a 302 a 67 mustang, I should be fine because those came with 28oz flexplates correct?
