Magnum 360 Swap Questions

CraigMachine is correct, however B and M no longer offers the 360 Mag balancer. You will need a flex plate from a 96 up 360 Magnum as they are balanced with weights on the flexplate as the earlier ones were balanced with weights on the torque converter,
YOU MUST RUN A NEUTRAL BALANCE CONVERTER WITH NO WEIGHTS ON IT WITH THIS SETUP.

Well thanks guys! I knew I could depend on ya'll! My converter is neutral balance because I had bought it for my 318, and the 360 is out of a 98 5.9 Limited Grand so I will just elongate one of the flex plate holes. Will the stock oil pickup out of the 318 work on the Magnum motor? This seems to be all I have left to do is buy a new oil pan and a fuel pump. This swap is relativity simple thanks to a full running donor vehicle and a autozone wiring diagram. I hope to try to document the build for others. Thanks for the help!!
