I am in the process of making the 351 Ford to 350 Chevy swap. I pulled a Mercruiser 350 Mag MPI from another boat that had a V drive installed. I need to mate the old Velvet Drive to the new Chevy engine. Everything lines up with the bellhousing, but I am going to need a new damper plate. Was looking for recommendations on what damper plate I need. Thanks.

Did you try your old Ford one to see if it matches your Chevy flywheel? Many fit multiple engines but only one make trans. Read this here - https://bpi.ebasicpower.com/search_2...Drive%20Damper look under ALTDA-106 or ALTDA-106A . These are both the same damper,one just has the ears trimmed. I don't recommend them they can be difficult with help or returns.Last edited by gary s; 04-23-2021, 03:16 PM. -

I did try the Ford damper on the chevy and none of the holes lined up. So.eone else recommended the ALTDA-106, I think I will be going with that plate, thanksComment

Well ordered the DA-106 yesterday and a new trans cooler since the 350 has a 1 1/4" raw water pump. Still have to get a strainer and need to find the remote oil lines, getting there.Comment
