Welcome.

The key issue will be the balance weight of the flywheel. The engine is externally balanced and slightly different than the LA 360 so you’ll need a flywheel specific to the 5.9 Magnum. These can be purchased aftermarket but are expensive. This question has come up in the Mopar community so an internet search should find answers.
