Converting to Magnum 5.2 w/carb - NEED LA 318/360 PARTS
Hello all,
I'm looking to perform a Magnum swap with a carb. I haven't acquired the engine yet though, and I'd like to see if I can source a
few used parts that I need for the build (engine will be sourced locally) as inexpensively as possible (e.g., combine shipping if I can find someone with multiple parts).
That said, this is what I'm looking for. Send me a PM with pictures and prices if you have anything that you wish to part with:
- Good, used roller cam from 89-91 LA 318 w/long snout, stock grind
- 1979-90 LA timing chain cover, casting #3769966 (seals from front, timing marks on driver's side - my dead 318 has the '67-earlier cover with a bolt-on timing tab)
- LA 360 center-sump oil pan. No truck pans. Price has to beat that of a brand-new Summit SUM-G3536 + shipping, if used.
- 1970+ style 3-row 26" radiator to match up with '70+ water pump; aftermarket OK.
- 1980's-era LA accessory brackets from an M-body
- V-belt pulleys from the same M-body
- Speedcrap China Magnum intake (which will allow for a carburetor swap on the Magnum AND retain the LA-style thermostat outlet, which provides the necessary room to mount the Sanden A/C unit with the M-body bracket).
- Factory 340/360 SBM throttle cable bracket for 4V carburetor
- 4V A904 kickdown rod
Thanks!
