1967 Avanti II 327 Corvette flexplate

[hrhchazman]

I need to order a new flexplate for my 67 Avanti II with a 327 Corvette engine. There are 2 available. One has 153 teeth, the other 168. One guy told me I need one, another guy told me I need the other. It's 24 degrees in my garage, does anybody know for sure which one is correct? I don't have a flywheel turning tool, and I really don't feel like climbing under there and counting the teeth while trying to turn the thing with a screwdriver (in 24 degree weather)

WOW! It's been over a week and no replies, so I'm guessing nobody knows the answer to this ?????

I never heard of GM using two different flexplates. I would assume that

the part would have a number on it, or some other distingishing feature.

You could measure the distance between the teeth on the gear, and then

go to the parts store and measure the new part.
