Default 5.0-C4 swap

I am posting this in here because of the C4.

What is needed to swap my trusty ol' C4 onto my 1996 5.0? I know the bellhouse bolt pattern is the same. I've heard things about flywheels, harmonic balancers, and timing covers. I need positive answers to my problem.

Although you have a C4 tranny, the guys on here don't know much about Fox bodies. Try the 5.0 sectiion.

You are asking a question about late model cars. the 5.0 section does help, i have been asking them some questions lately.

im on both, the bellhousing is the same bolt pattern but u need a 50oz flexplate with the right tooth count for ur c4 either a 157th, or 164, other than that u are good! its probably a 157 unit hopefully cause it will fit better in the tranny tunnel
