magnum manual swap

Sorry I'm so late to this, don't get on here much lately.

The conversion flywheel will not work with EFI. The conversion flywheel is just a 130T flywheel balanced for a 5.9 magnum, it does not have the necessary tone wheel notches to run the SMPI.

I've been around and around on this. There are only a couple of options to use the factory EFI and a stick.

1. One individual (fzmax I think) got a manufacturer to custom machine a flywheel for him with the needed notches. Pretty sure it ran $500 or so and I don't know if they will do any more.

2. Roll your own by knocking the starter ring off an OE flywheel and getting the outer diameter machined to fit a 130T starter ring. The above individual tried that and while it has been done successfully, he was unable to find a shop that could do it for him and turned to the custom route. The guy that got it done this way was supposed to get a quote on more of them, been a couple of years and I'm still waiting to hear how much.

3. Move the crank sensor to the front of the motor. I think the easiest method there would be to punch 8 holes in the crank pully and mount a sensor to read them. Only wiring would be to re-route the sensor wiring from the belhousing area to the front of the motor.

I've wanted to do this for some time. If I ever get to it, I will be relocating the sensor. Best way I can see to do this.

BTW, you will need the $400 MP conversion flywheel anyway as the balance is different between the LA 360 and Magnum 5.9. Or, rebalance a flywheel.

You can read more about this by searching for my posts on here. Or try searching on "Flywheel for Magnum swop EFI" or something like that.
