360 Frankenstein

i have a 69 dart that i built up a 360 LA motor for, this motor was blown and i had to buy a new block for it and used the parts from my last motor. problem is i mistakenly bought a magnum 360 motor. now the machine shop used all the internals from the LA motor including the crank rods etc. if i get a set of magnum heads for this motor can this work? and is it even possible to get a intake for a magnum motor that will change it to a carberator instead of fuel injection.

The frankenstien can be saved the internals are the same except for the cam and lifters. Get the magnum heads and the intake and you will be fine. The pushrods are different length and they pass oil threw to the rockers. The cam won't work buy you a new magnum cam. I believe Edelbrock makes an aftermarket intake manifold for it also.
