" From: "Todd  Wallis" <cyclone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

" I have pulled the 360 out of my 1970 Rebel (standard trans) and plan to put 
" it in my Javelin (with a 904).
" 
" Obviously the flywheel will bolt right up but am I going to have a engine 
" balance problem?
yup.  the flexplate or flywheel must match the engine - 360 for 360,
304 for 304.  the only exception is that for the last one or two
years [~'70], 360 and 390 had the same unbalance.
" Is the only solution to break the engine down entirely and have it all 
" balanced?
nope.  just find a 360/tf flexplate.  it won't be as good as the
factory balance, which matches the original parts closely.
