Flex plate for 5.9 and 904

[remytherat]

Researching parts for my 5.9 swap into my dart which has a 904. Looking to keep the stock converter.

Since the b&m flex plate is out of production, what are my options? I've heard some of the 5.9 magnum flex plates can be made to work (97 and up??) with a neutral balance 904 converter. Looking for cheap.

I believe that is for the LA360 with the bigger imbalance.

Oh ya. Sorry about that.

Yes, a stock 5.9 flexplate works. That's what I'm using. Seems like I had to oblong one hole though. Darn memory isn't as good as it once was!

When I was running a 904 I used the stock 5.9 flexplate from a 96 and later truck. One hole needs to be opened up maybe an eighth of an inch to allow it to mount to the 904 converter.

So is the cutoff 96 and up?

If so, problem solved.

I used a 2001 stock flexplate.

Yeah, 96 and up. When they switch to OBD2 and to the 46re they moved the weight from the converter to the flexplate.

Thanks guys, that solves that.
