Hey all, I am getting into the final stages of my LA/Magnum project. Still a lot of $$ to go, but I feel like it's coming together (or will be once I get those heads). However, I still have some questions:
1. Flex-plate: What am I looking for?
2. Vibration Dampner: which kind? Thin/Thick? Magnum/LA style?
3. Bellhousing: Will an LA/904 housing work for my 904, or do I have to get a custom one made? Where can I buy 'em? I don't even see Lakewood's offerings for 904s on their website.
4. Alternator: 60amps okay? Should I go with stock replacement for LA or another style (I heard BBC works?)
5. Fuel Pump: Going with mechanical, but what GPH should I be looking for? Any other special things to look for?
6. Oil filter adapter. I need the stock-style one. Can I find one anywhere online?
7. Torque Converter: For a full-street car, what should I be looking for?
8. Pulley Kits: is it worth going to a serpentine drive kit? I will need to purchase all the pulleys, the dampner, the alternator, power steering pump, and all the brackets and belts anyway.
