Greg's correct, it's been done with V8's since about '93. For many years
Mopar Performance said it couldn't be done but you have to realize they want
to sell new stuff to us. All that was needed to install magnum heads on
old LA blocks was AMC lifters and the proper push rods. To finish it off,
you use the M1 4-bbl intake manifold made for the Magnum Crate motor.

Nice power gains over any of the factory pre-mag heads.
