la to magnum
 
I'm getting sick and tired of problems with my 318 la engine in my chrysler fifth ave and my last ignition problems may have ruined my engine. Because of this im thinking of putting in a fuel injected magnum 5.2l. I've seen it done but was wondering if any1 knew what i need to put it in my car. If i dont go this route im either going to sell my car or put a chevy in it.

I will never forgive you if you go c@&$y.

If you want to run a Magnum motor in your car, you will need the wiring harness and ECM from the same vechicle. You may want to get a 2wd tranny with the Magnum as well to keep it all the same. I'd look for a combo out of a truck and use it all.

my grandfather drove a 72 chevy pickup until 2007 when he sold it because he couldnt drive a stick anymore. had over 550,000 on it. the guy that bought it still drives it. never had anything off the motor except a waterpump and alternator and starter. my engine has 88000 miles on it and runs like it does. also there are a lot more and cheaper performance parts for the 350. i also have a 301/4spd from a 79 firebird that could be fun in it.
