    Dip stick length

    I bought a mopar sbm dipstick & tube set. When put it on with stock pan, the full mark only had 3.5 qts. I had to remark the stick. Morale is to check like jos51700 said.

    Need Advice On Magnum Crate Engine

    Couple thoughts: heads were probably only milled few thou, mopar wasn't known for going nuts on that because they used stock valvetrain. You could put in stock valvetrain and feel play on pushrods as you tighten it down. Otherwise get adjustable rockers then adjust them with stock rods and don't...

    For those with Magnums - What Mounts did you use?

    I put a 5.9L into a 74 Duster that had a 318 la with spool mounts. I just bolted the original La mounts onto the magnum. Only thing different is took out spongy rubber and put in PST bushings. Works great easy to line up and positive lock in with washers engaged in bolt saddle.

    Which Oil filter are you using with headers?

    I have 5.9L in duster w TTI headers and could not get standard filter out past trans tube and header pipes. I use smaller diam filter that will slide thru there. Wix 51515 or napa 1515. It is smaller diam but longer height so same media area as 1068.

    5.9 Magnum opportunity

    I don't know about van, but pickups had different oil pan arrangement that won't fit A-body. May need LA style pan and oil pickup. Also I believe radiator hose connections are different.

    Thinking about going 5.9

    I used the 5.9 block for my stroker build and I love it. The stock roller lifters are great for my med duration and lift roller cam. Even used the original lifters with the roller guides. Used the RPM Magnum head (now EQ head). I put the 318 timing cover and pulleys on it too. It has been...

    5.9

    You have 2 ways to go. 1. get the computer control module from the Durango for control of engine & trans. Or there is an aftermarket system for adapting to A-body electrics. You will also need electric fuel pump for the fuel injection. Trans mount and tunnel would have to be modified for...

    318 Non-Magnum [Valvetrain question]

    Are you talking about individual rocker arm type Magnum style or shaft mount type on LA engines. Sorry didn't notice the non-magnum in the subject.

    Mopar Magnum

    If that was a chassis dyno, then that is pretty good hp. You lose about 25-30% thru drivetrain depending on trans condition and convertor slippage. That would equate to 350 hp or better engine hp. I'll bet your grandfather had some paperwork somewhere about the engine specs. (shoebox, or file...
