Engine swap 2 piece rms to 1 piece

[FlyNavy]

Good afternoon. Looking to replace my almost dead .350 in my 1980 C3. I have found a possible replacement, but not sure if it will work, or not. It's a 1 piece rms. Will it work or am I looking for some trouble.

I live in Hawaii, so my options are pretty limited at the moment.

Thanks for the help.

At a minimum, you'll need a new flywheel/flexplate to match the smaller 1-piece RMS crankshaft bolt pattern.

If I'm correct you'll not only get a 1 piece RMS but you'll also have a roller block. So then you can stay with the old stuff or transfer to OEM roller parts. Good deal if you ask me
