magnum 360 into a 74 duster that had a slant 6

-
that is the flex plate i also bought for shelf item. but i just got another 360/518. it is a 96 model with all wiring and computer. separated them and it has the flex plate with the weight on it. so i guess never say never.
 
I used this for my 5.9 magnum: ATP Z332 Flexplate | RockAuto

1994 and older used the weighted flex plate, 1995 and newer had the weight on the converter. Usually. After all, we're talking about Mopar here, so almost nothing is 100% certain.
I won't "disagree", because as you say; never say never... That said, in my limited experience with 5.9 Magnums I have found the opposite:'95 or '96 and newer (I've had a '97, '99 and 2000- OBD2 era) have had weighted plates and neutral convertors; but have been told the early OBD1s had a non-weighted plate and weighted convertor (no personal experience with early Mags)... so I guess the moral of the story is: ALWAYS check what you actually have- assume nothing! Just use the right convertor to match your flexplate, and vice-versa.
PS: 5.2 Magnums *ALL years* use non-weighted flexplates and neutral convertors- just to keep everyone on their toes.

Actually, you are 100% right. My statement above is wrong, I had it totally backwards. My experience is 1994 and older has the weight on the converter, 1995 and newer has the weight on the flex plate. I was confused because my motor is a 94, and I bought a weighted flex plate. But I only bought the weighted flex plate because it's the easiest way to balance it all out with my neutral balance converter.
That's what I get for posting at 4 in the morning after a bunch of beers.
