Magnum Intake on LA engine?

Update.

Clunkered vehicles don't have to be shredded. PickN'Pull has a large sign "the clunkers are here". They spray purple paint on the engine blocks. I bought some 5.9L engine parts from a RAM and a Grand Cherokee. I wonder if the engines could be resurrected.


I was at the local bone yard a couple of Saturdays ago and all the clunker vehicles had their engines sprayed with flourescent green paint and had an official looking tag wired on stating they were part of the clunker program and had been run with whatever the goop they put in them and had serious internal engine damage but they weren't restricting you from purchasing parts off them. I pulled some trim pieces for my Dakota off one.

I am quite sure the engines could be resurrected, maybe require new cranks though.
