Yes you do, because your lost. This site is: "Traditional hot rods and customs" pre 1964. It's on the home page, unless you skipped it.

Sorry to have to tell you, but you have made two major mistakes. First, this is a traditional hot rod and custom car website. Nothing over 1964 with VERY few exceptions. And a 73 Maverick isn't one of the very few. For sure, you'll get flamed. Tossed. Fired. Shown the door. Second, you have absolutely no introduction. Not a great way to start. I'lll betcha this first thread you started will be deleted. I'll not make that happen. Others will follow with a different take and maybe add something worth you reading it.
ford has different weights on there flex plates. u probably have the wrong one. u have already been served so i let that slide.
yep, best do a proper intro or go back to lurking, if that is your thing. did you do a search here and online at Ford sites about this topic? lots of info available to answer your questions.
Was it Brett Maverick or was it Bart that used to race with Parnelli and Newman ..... nevermind, I guess you had to be there!
if you used the early flex plate it has the wrong ballance the later 302 i think 86 and up went to a 50 oz ballance the wrong harmonic ballancer and flex plate makes for a ******** of an engine
"Nothing over 1964" - where did that come from? You must be the local forum police. ExCuuuuuuuuuuuuse me! Also it appears that the subject of your first post was on Flying and didn't see no stinking intro from you.
