Are the flywheels the same for the 3 and 4 hole balanced 304's?

Everything that I have on this type of thing says it is an "I don't
care" situation. 
I am aware of a number of the larger cubic inch engines being swapped
around so that you have to get the correct "3 or 4 hole" harmonic
balancer on the engine in order for it to mate up with the existing
pulley configuration. If there would have been a problem with
flywheel/harmonic balancer compatibility problems should have shown up
this way too!

Trying to get the ac working on my daughters 83 Spirit
that Firestone wrecked last year.  I finally located a
replacement evap and started putting things back
together.  The following have been replaced in the
system: 
Condensor -new
Compressor-rebuilt
Charging valves-new
Evap and expansion valve-used
The system was running on several occasions last
summer but Firestone was never able to get it sealed
after they wrecked the evap lines and the charge would
only last a day or so.  After getting everything back
together I pulled vacuum on the system for approx 30
min and then let it sit for over an hour and the
vacuum held.  I then put in one can of HC-12
(environmently friendly, direct replacement for R-12
that requires only 40% of the R-12 charge, ie two
cans).   Hooked up the second can, started the car,
opened the second can and turned the ac on high...no
compressor cycling on.  Checked the system pressures
and low side was high and high side was low , but
there was pressure.  
TSM did not have a t/s procedure for the compressor. 
Looking for suggestions on how to figure out why the
compressor will not turn on.

Thinking evil thoughts! Serves you right! Chertoff musta caught you
thinking unAmericanly! Calling Homeland Security sir!

But it might be just that you tried to BCC: to the amc-list. The
mailer robot likes to see it's email address plain and out in
the open.  Part of anti-spam control. Sorry!

Assuming there is nothing else wrong, you might need to jumper
the low-pressure safety switch to get the compressor to pump
the freon into the system. Once you get it close to right you
can remove the jumper. I assume you have the right oil charge
and all that.
