    What are all the important specs and details i need to look at for getting a new flex plate and torque converter for my '72 c4 V8?

    Is this right; case fill, small bellhousing, 157 tooth flexplate, 24 spline, 10.5" bolt circle, 1.375 pinion? Anything else?

    You have more information than you need. If you give the parts guy your year of make (for the car) and tell him its a V8 with a C4 there is only the one set of parts that will fit. None of the Mavericks came from the factory (in the USA) with anything but a 157 tooth flywheel and the 10.5" bolt pattern converter.

    Alright cool, thanks. I've been looking online and in catalogs for these and found conflicting info.

    26 spline right?
