3.8 internal or external balance engine

hi guys and gals

just as the title says, is the 3.8 internal balance or external balance. The reason I am asking is I have a 5 speed car, but going to put a 700R4 into it. The 700R4 came out of a 4.3. I want to try to use the 4.3 flexplate. It does not appear to be balanced. So let me know. As you can see in my sig I have the 94 T/A, but my son has a 96 RS, so this is what my question is about.

It uses an internal balance shaft.
