460 Flywheel question

I recently purchased a used 460 that I plan on swapping out my 351m for. I have an np435 manual transmission, and the engine I bought has a flexplate on it. I am trying to find out which flywheel I need, as I don't know if the engine is internally or externally balanced.

the engine casting number is D1VE-A2B.
The head casting number is D3VE-A2A, but thats only 1 side, I was unable to locate a number on the other one.

any other info on the engine or swap would be helpful as well.. thank you

-Tyler

Welcome to FTE first off.
The casting numbers you give indicate the engine is a 73-78 engine so it would be an internal balanced engine.

So, with the internally balanced engine that means I need the flywheel without a weight on it. correct?

I have also read that you can use a 390 flywheel on the 460 is this true?

thanks

I've used the 390 flywheel in past swaps which was around 15 years ago.
