Ok here's the one my friend used. He said it bolted straight up. Obviously you would get the zero balance version

I can confirm it will work. He also used that Dominator converter on the stock flex plate. So it will definitely fit.
Also look here and you'll see that there were indeed 11 3/8 pattern 164T flex plates from way back in 65.....

Their ad is obviously incorrect because it does work! Just send them a message and get them to confirm it has a 11.375" converter pattern. Because an 11.5" pattern C4/AOD converter is actually very unusual. I've already measured 5 C4 flex plates and none have an 11.5" pattern.

Btw I have this book and there's more than a few mistakes in it.
One glaring one in this chart is the 157T AOD flexplate.....WRONG! It's 164T.
