You'll need to use a spacer washer between the two pulleys, but it's no big deal. I think I even have some spare bolts for the crank, too. (I had to buy a 5 pack instead of just one when I did the supercharger, I think they're still in the trunk of the Pat) When it comes to simple solutions, I usually have some good ones, as I'm always broke and need a cheap fix, instead of a $200 pulley! 
EDIT: I also think that the 300 six Ford crank pulleys will fir the V8's, as the crank diameter is the same for both engines, along with 302/351W Fords, 3.8L Buicks, and 3.8L Ford V6's. I'm sure there's more, but you have to watch balancing, if you use the 302/351W, get the aftermarket ones that have the removable weights. This is what I plan to do on my 374, along with a different water pump.
