Default Interchangeablity of a flywheel and flexplate

I have a 5.0 H.O. with a clutch/flywheel (50 oz imbalance). I want to buy a junkyard Explorer 5.0, and it looks like this one will have a flexplate for an automatic transmission (also 50 oz imbalance).
If I swap out the flexplate for the flywheel, is it reasonable to expect the rotating assembly to be balanced? Would I need to swap the harmonic balancer over also? Or will I have to gut the entire rotating assembly to have it all balanced?

Thanks in advance!!!
