904 to T-5-WC swap

[<mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

NIT one, A 1985 T-5 should be a workd class trans, but I hope you checked the numbers. When I had my 84 I found all kinds of crossover stuff in it, some 1983 and some 1984.
  Nit two, the bellhousing will not have the T-5 pattern. Well it shouldnot, but who knows till you seeitit could be a newer bell that's allready been swapped or an early multi pattern bell.
 To balance the flywheel all they should need is a 360 flexplate to measure the unbalance of it then make the six the same. The six is neutral balanced.

The bell housing off a 6 is the same as on the V-8 isn't it.  I found a Bell 
off a 73, was looking at changing out my sons 74 Javelin 904 auto to a Ford 
1985 T-5-WC (got two last week after looking for over a year for a good 
one), all I need at this point is a good Bell Housing and a Fly Wheel for 
the 360, how far off do you think the balance would be on the fly wheel off 
the 6? 
 
Was told that to balance it to the 360 I would need to pull the crank for 
the Machine shop to use and also told it would be best if they had the rods 
and pistons to balance also, sounds like allot of work if I can't find a 360 
fly wheel.
