magnum to la swap
#21
Dapepper9 is 100% right....LA motors mount on bosses cast on the front sides of the block, magnums mount the engine on 3 bosses cast around a a freeze plug
magnum motors have LA motor mount bosses but LA motors don’t have magnum bosses......gotta fabricate them!!
intake is around 300 bucks, plus carb, plus early LA distributor and wireing...sepentine belt system will still work and gotta get LA voltage regulator on magnum alternator. Fuel pump can be a simple carter electric mounted on the frame
just did the magnum swap into 79 trans van, had it carbed for a bit and now have factory fuel injection
