75 crank in a 88 block

[v-8power]

I have a chance to get a 88 302 that needs a crank. Its disassembled right now. I already have a crank that's been ground and is ready to go. Can I use this crank on the newer engine? Thanks

I figured I would have to line bore the block, wouldnt I?

To use the 75 crank in an 88 block, the oil slinger ring needs to be machined off and the 75 balancer and flywheel/flexplate has to be used. You're better off buying a 86-up crank for this.
