Magnum heads?

OK I have a 1996 Dodge Magnum 5.2L engine.
Will the heads from that engine fit an earlier model 318?

The engine I have needs the bottom end rebuilt. But I have a 1975 318 short block, that I would like to rebuild, so I can do a quick weekend swap.

I just need to know if I can use the same heads.

Thanks!

AMc lifters & hollow pushrods are needed as well as a different intake as the intake bolt holes are angled differently .
No external oiling needed , the rockers oil through the pushrods .
