I finally completed my magnum heads on La block swap this week. I picked up a set of low mileage stock magnum heads from a member ( Thanks Glen!) and a set of 7.625" pushrods from another member (Thanks Louis!), new oil through lifters (Summit) and used an M1 single plane intake (Ebay). I used the thin head gaskets that Mancini sells

My 360 is a rebuild that has dished pistons so I figured the thin gaskets might help my compression a bit. I am running a mopar purple cam shaft that is just below .500 lift. I realize the single plane intake may be a bit much for the stock heads but RHS heads are on the list for the future. Everything went together with no problems. It has a real nice lope to it at idle and decent throttle response. Just wanted to share my success with everyone and add a big THANKS to FABO and its great members who helped me with parts to make this thing run.
