This question could be better answered on http://www.moparts.com , but here goes.

The 360 is an externally balanced engine, the 318 is an internally balanced engine. You will need a flywheel from a 360. The rear cross member is the same for all tranmissions. The bellhousing you need will have to match the bearing retainer on your transmission. Over the years, there were three differant sizes. So measures yours and go find the correct bellhousing.
