Default Year One Crate Engine Questions

I've been debating about the merits of rebuilding my old 350 2bolt versus just getting a crate.

After looking around I found this Yearone CT350PC1 Year One Power Crate 400hp 350 crate engine assembly. The price is within my budget and cheaper than a rebuild (in my area).

My questions are: I have a 4sp car, what flywheel balancer combo do I need? I know that my of flywheel is for a two piece rear seal, so that wont work. Will the 8" balancer work?

I did ask to make sure that the clutch pivot boss is there, it is.

Will this intake manifold fit under the stock hood?

Will the headers (Doug's) that were bolted to my original heads work?

I'm sure I missed something my head is spinning a bit. I just want to make sure I don't cause myself alot of grief and aggravation by selecting the wrong items....


Thanks
Howard 76 4sp

engine comes with a balancer. With a 1.5in. dropbase air cleaner assy. and a 3in. filter, it fit nicely under my hood. I have the 383.
