Getting ready to get this new-to-me 67 GTO out of winter storage and start the process of getting her running again. The car has sat since fall of 2020 without running but up...

Can anyone recommend a good quality, oil impregnated bronze pilot bushing? And does anyone know what the correct size bushing is for a 60's-70'e era Pontiac 400?

Is this right?

From what I'm gathering, finding the parts to swap in the Dearborn will be more trouble than its worth. Guess I'll stay with the original Muncie plan.

I'm starting to think maybe I should determine what year this 400 is and what it might have been out of before I order a flywheel. I will have to pull numbers off it in the spring when it comes out...

I assumed that was the case. A fraction of an inch difference shouldn't call for a new driveshaft in my experience.

Would this yoke work? If so, what does this "type" of yoke implicate as far as...

Is there a concern about flywheels being properly balanced? Once again I'm not sure what this 400 motor is out of or what was originally behind it. If this is an "automatic" motor (hopefully with the...

Keeping in mind the car was originally a manual, I'm curious if the manual driveshaft was mated to the TH400 yoke. Again, we're talking less than an inch difference. Like I said I've never had a car...

Based on what I've found, the TH400 driveshaft is like 5/8" difference. I assume that won't necessitate a new or modified shaft. The yoke - does anyone have a part number or just look for one off a...
