the older 318 had different mounts(mounts bolt on the front of the engine) and the heads are different on the older LA blocks. you can put the magnum heads on there but the valve geometry will be kind of funny. you could probably build mounts pretty easy and just do a carb setup. just my .02. go to allpar.com for more info
