you know that the pre magnum blocks are almost the same and if you are
looking at a magnum just for the heads they will work with a little machine
work on the premag. to find a cheep motor in that price range that is pre
mag .just look in your local trader for a old car or truck like a cordoba or
a furry .you will get the trans the motor and here it run . also you can
regain your investment by selling the good parts off of it that you dont
need .the last motor i got was out of a 76ram it ran but the body was shot
i gave 20 dollars for the whole truck it even had a full tank of gas in it
30 gallons
