A bell housing from a 3.9V6 Dakota will bolt to a 318 or 360. You will need a 360 flywheel if you go that route as it is externally balanced and the magnum 93-up are different than the LA 92-down. 318 is neutral balance.
 
Exactly, I am coming to the end of the swap. I have had the 5.9 magnum swapped in for a while, but Just did the AX15 swap. If you have any questions on the swap let me know.
