Adapting a premag engine for mag heads would be an expensive and not a
straightforward mod because of the different oiling method used by the
premags and the mags. At a minimum, it would require replacing most,
if not all, of the valvetrain components (lifters, pushrods, roller rockers,
retainers, springs, etc.), plugging up oil passages in the premag block,
installing a roller cam and drilling into the block for mag head bolts.
