I see the magnum block is not drilled for the oil ports that feed the rocker rails on the LA sytle heads. Therefor I am assuming that w/ a magnum block you must run mag style heads?

I would never use LA heads on a magnum block, Why?? Because the magnum heads in stock form flow beeter, have better chambers, & nothing to dropping them on, Plus there are magnum heads out like the EQs & RHSs for less then a Grand ready too run & flow VG #s OOTB.

im curious also, are they a bolt and go??
The oil pumps up the pushrod, through the hole in the rocker, down the rocker, under the shaft, adn down to the tip. If you deviate from stamped steel stuff, you will/may have to do some other work. But in terms of stock stuff, it's a bolt on.

Can you bolt 01 Magnum heads on a 70s 340? Would there be any advantage?
Id be interested in a set of RHS heads ready to go for less than a grand. Where did you see them listed? That would be the ideal solution, but i was wondering if what i already own could be made to work. I have a 98 mag 360 and a fresh set of 67cc ported X heads that flow 260 @ .550I would never use LA heads on a magnum block, Why??
