List and questions for a carbed 5.9 magnum swap

What year car you putting this in?

You don't need a new alternator and can use whatever is on the car now for a VR (what year is your car?)

The Magnums all came with a "mini" starter unless you don't get one with the engine. Mid 90's Dodge RAM / Dakota 5.2 / 5.9 starter


Manifolds, headers, fine

You need whatever you'd use in an LA for a distributor for carb. "Keep the EFI" (thinks I)

Mags don't have a mech pump. Easy answer.........electric, rear mount pump

I know nothing of the serpentine belts, but I bought a 96-7 junker RAM with a froze up AC pump. someone put a shorter belt on there and bypassed the bad compressor, so that might be one way.

Consider keeping the EFI. There are ways to do factory, or use Megasquirt, and others.

I was under the impression that magnum exhaust maƱnies won't work in an a body. Well that is to say the drivers side won't work. Am I mistaken?
