I would drop it off at the machinist and let them buy the flexplate and balancer. Alot depends on your rod and piston weight. I just dropped off my 408 to be balanced with a 28ounce flexplate and balancer. The problem I had is that the H-beam carrillo rods I bought were fairly heavy and I spent an extra 100$ adding mallory to the crank counter weights, I might not of had to going with 50 ounce.
