Jim,

I don't know why you need a gasket with a dry clutch setup?
I don't think there would be any balance issues in that swap, if everything fits together as it was in the 470 gasser I'd just put it together unless there is something I'm missing. We are putting the late 3 bolt gear reduction starters on the high compression pulling engines we build so I don't think there is a ring gear mismatch. If you have all the 470 stuff, I'd see how it goes together. To my knowledge there is no difference in the rear dimensions between the gas and diesel.
