Doesn't even need to be a V8 dakota. The V6s have the same bellhousing bolt pattern. I got all my stuff out of a 90 or 92 v6 dakota and it bolts right up to a SBM I have the flywheel, mini starter and bell bolted to my 318 to get it running but needed to buy a 5.9 flywheel to swap in my 5.9 magnum since V6s are balanced same as 318/5.2s

Just be aware that all of the stuff you have is for a 143T flywheel which puts the starter out farther than typical and can cause you problems with your exhaust/headers. Not sure TTI's will clear, I know Buschi had to customize his non-TTI headers to make it work.

I know of one individual that cut the starter pocket out of his bellhousing and welded it back in at the correct location for a 130T flywheel. That is what I am planning to do if I get that far.
