So I'm just tossing around the idea of swapping in a magnum 360 crate engine into my car, and I've had a question arise about the flex plate. I know that I need an externally balanced magnum flex plate, and according to magnumswap.com, I can't use an LA 360 flex plate, but rather a magnum specific one. I found this one on summit:
ATP Flexplates Z-332
says that the outer diameter is 11.5 inches, and in my service manual, I see that the torque converter (originally a 318) is 10.75 inches. I don't know if they mean the bolt hole diameter is 11.5 on the flex plate, or if that is the actual outer edge. What do you guys think? or is there another alternative for a flex plate? Would something like this work?
