SO WHAT IS THE ENGINE ID NUMBER? Yes, I'm yelling. "Steve" didn't build the engine, I do not conclude that he knows exactly what it is. So get the freakin' number!

THE TORQUE CONVERTER YOU SHOWED US IS FOR AN INTERNALLY BALANCED ENGINE!
Again, yes, I'm yelling. You don't seem to be paying a lot of attention to what people are saying.

The engine ID number will confirm that it's a mid-70's 360 or whatever it is.

If that's the case it needs the harmonic damper/balancer from a 360 (not 5.9 Mag) hanging off the front of the engine, and an externally balanced torque converter assembly hanging off the back.

The converter assembly can either be a neutral balanced converter with an unbalanced flexplate, or an externally balanced converter with neutral flexplate.

I'm very sorry, the car is not at my house and then I had a hard time to get to see the numbers, but with a camera and my wifes make up mirror I think the freaking number is: 3418496-7-360

I also took a closer look a my damper and I am convinced it is an unbalanced one I have, and it has not been replaced since Steve had the engine.

I repeat; it vibrated badly with the two heavy weights on either side of the drain plug (TC from a 75-76 Volare). I took the weights off and it got better, but it still vibrates. You can notice it when it idles if you pay attention, then, of course, it gets worse at higher revs.
Engine is pretty weak below 2,000 so I will need a higher stall converter but I had this one and wanted to get to drive the engine so I could find out what it's like before I order a new TC for my tranny 906 to 518 swap. And yes, in neutral and park also.

It has a RPM intake, a vacuum Holley and MSD 6AL and MSD distributor that's the only things I can tell.
