My 1st 5.9 Magnum Build
Last summer bought a complete 97 5.9 Magnum for 150. Came out of a Durango with 140K miles. Had a problem with intake plenum leaking oil. Torn it down, and the cylinders looked great. Used a flex hone and honed the cylinders. Clean pistons...rods and block with oven cleaner....crank look good...put it all back together with new rings and bearings. New oil pump...pan and pickup. Stock roller cam and lifters. Heads are rebuild Magnum heads from Ebay. Have not put intake or front of cover on since I dont know where it is going yet, either 88 Dodge D250 or 94 Dodge 2500.
Got another Magnum in the works. Have set of IMM EQ heads for it...
