Carbed Magnum parts list?
The timing cover and water pump from the LA both fit the magnum, (gaskets and all) and if you are using the stock magnum cam you will HAVE to run an electric pump.
You need to use the magnum front balancer with the LA pulleys on it, and one bolt hole for the bottom pulley may need to be elongated a little for all 6 bolts to go in.
There is a kit you can get if you need it to adapt the mechanical pump to the mag cam.
I picked up a Chev big block fuel pump block off plate for mine at Autozone. (same size as the mopar small block pump mounting area in the timing cover)
The 318 pan and pickup will have to be swapped out for a front sump 360 pan and oil pump pickup.
I just used a regular old 360 pan and gasket set.
Here's my Magnum as an LA with a fully automatic 42RH overdrive trans, EQ heads, Performer intake and Edelbrock 600 electric choke.
Talk about a rocket. :D
The entire swap for theengine, trans and all took me about three days, and that was including building the new crossmember for the OD trans.
Not sure I'll ever get used to two more shifts after 3rd, as every time it catches me off guard just a bit.
OH, OH, if your going to be using headers be sure and cut that boss for the truck mount off the drivers side of the block before the engine goes in or it won't let the headers sit flush to the heads on most.
It's a PIA to cut off with the engine in the car already. :D
