    Yes it is a confirmed 55, 308 crate engine with hydraulic lifters. The flywheel is an oil filled design. I talked to Wildrick on this matter. they mic-ed a flywheel that they have. There's is .428 in thickness. My flywheel is .597 in thickness.

    AMC manufactured a dry clutch setup for the 308 backed by a 3 spd OD transmission. Put this into the 55 cars.

    You can get the valves from Randy Maas. I highly recommend his modern timing chain set as well.
