    For a 5.0 from '81-up you need a 157 tooth flexplate with 50oz balance, it's a aftermarket part only...

    All late 5.0 were mated to automatics with a 164 tooth flex...

    A 250 will have a 2-bolt starter (same as 302) and the 200 will have a 3-bolt starter. There are well-documented threads on this subject already.
