Alan / Ira:

Sorry to disagree - the BJ8 clutch uses a larger mounting bolt than the 
earlier one, and 3 dowels instead of 2.  The fix is the same - take the 
flywheel and the clutch cover to a good machine shop - they'll figure it out 
for you.

Done this a few times.

The bolt holes will be the same, only the pegs are different.

Just purchase the BJ8 clutch cover and take it to your Machine shop
and let them balance and do the peg work.

No need for a template....
