Supposedly you can tell if you have a newer 5.0 crank that requires 50oz weight vs the older 302 crank that requires 28oz weight by looking at the throws and counterweights of the crank. I know people who can tell. I'm sure that keith can tell you. So, just take the pan off and look at the crank. See what it requires, and then start to determine if you have the right dampner and flywheel. Do you know the manufacturers??? Can you see a part number??? I so, call them up and ask them what the weight is.
