The OE wheel is what you need to use. The engine is balanced to it. Have it resurfaced and ask the engine shop to check the PP for neutral. Likely it’s good but you never know. In theory you can clock the PP in any position. The shop may determine the optimal position.
Since Midwest Trans f’d my flywheel I no longer have a balanced set. And they claim it had holes in addition to the factory ones. So that’s another bummer.
I’ll likely have to pull the crank and start over.
