Default Flex plate question, for 408

Alright, Im getting close to building my 408, and soon I am going to need to get all the parts balanced. One of the last parts I need is a new flywheel. Alright. the block is a 6.0 block, but I will be mating it to a 4l60E. Do I need the 6.0's flex plate or a 5.3's flexplate? And, if anyone has the part # or a locatiopn in which I can purchase the correct one for a good price!

Thanks a bunch guys!

You need a 4L60E flexplate, which can be found on all 5.3's, 4.8's that had a 4L60E, and the 6.0's that had a 60E. 60E flexplates are three bolt, 11" pattern, 80E flexplates are 6 bolt 11.5" pattern.
