Nah, the engine that came in the boat is a 1985 gm 5.7, it has a wider bolt pattern for the flywheel than the 1988 i will be using, the original used studs sticking out of the crank, the flywheel and coupler just slid right on the studs and 6 nuts held it all together. I was quite saddened when I took it apart, wasn’t expecting a coupler built like that.
