You better get it balanced.. looks like the OD of
the crank has been turned down.. and I think I see
a spot on the side of the counter weight that looks
like its drilled... JMO

looks like maybe it WAS balanced with the LA imbalanced flywheel, cause it looks like more than factory holes in the counterweights, which may have to be done to counter the extra imbalance of the LA 360.

Factory balance had the weights in the converter, not the flex plate.

looks like the first generation of the 360 Magnum engine still got the weight on the converter ?!
and around -96 they change to weight on flexplate
any confirm this?
