Jim, I'd recomend the external, think about it.
The internal is just a large PIA to deal with, period.
billd on the AMCForum has found that the face of an old flywheel is a 1/4"

Make sure you get you ducks in a row on this one.
That 1/4" could really screw things up.
It should be fairly easy to find external slave bell by now
