If it is truly a Magnum, you need a Magnum damper (and f'wheel, flex plate, or converter).

There were 2 styles of Mag 360 dampers: With and w/o integral pulleys.

96 up 5.9L Magnum's used a weighted flex plate.No weights on the converter.I think the changes came in with OBD II and the J-Tech engine controller.

Currently going through the same thing. I put an 03 flex plate and 99 balancer on a 94 block and crank. Hope to start it up in the next couple of weeks.

thanks guys...I have a true magnum with a LA front and a B&M cut out flex plate and a non weighted TC with a older 727 trans and I always felt there was a slite vibration....I bought this motor used so thought it was normal until i read a site that said they are having the same problem...my dampner is a LA style....so should i try a magnum damp.? Will my v/belt pulley bolt up to a magnum dampner?

I have the v belt system off my 72 318 on my Magnum. Everything looks like it is going to work well. Hope to fire it up in two weeks.
