5.0l troubles flyweel???

ok here is the deal

i pulled a e40sd out of a 94 inline 6 4.9l and put it in my 93 f150 i also swapped the flywheel and i kept the torque converter from the 94 in the 94 tranny i noticed that the 93 5.o flyweel was balanced on 1 side and has a verry tiney notch in the flywheel were one of the bolt holes for the torque converter is also the torque converter itself is differnt so my question is what torque converter and what flyweel should i use because my truck is no shacking like crazy so there is obviuosly something unbalaced

also what kind of oil goes into the torque converter and how much??

Your torque converter is serviced thru the transmission dipstick. When you reach the correct level on the stick, everything is good. It uses the same fluid as the tranny. If you want to drain it, on the front of the converter, thru a hole in the flex plate you will see a small hex plug. Put this at the 6:00 position and remove it to drain the fluid out. Then start engine, check tranny level and service as required.
