Magnum crank and 4 speed
The 5.9 I got from a 2001 Durango was an auto. The crank on it looked like it had been drilled but did not have the depth or width to put the correct size bushing in. When I took the block in to have it bored over and align honed, I also took the crank and had them drill it out. The shop said they couldn't ensure a perfect fit for the bushing while keeping it balanced like the factory did. They just made it deep and wide enough that the transmission shaft wouldn't touch and I could use the needle bearing that goes where the torque converter would have sat.
Someone on here had put up some images with their measurements and I used that to give the machine shop and it worked great.
