The differance in piston height is about .080 witch will make a nice bump in compression. However just swapping magnum heads onto a 318 LA with magnum heads will not yield you as much compression as a factory 318 magnum because the 318 magnum had a lower deck height also by about .015.




Interesting...
Is there a difference in deck heights between:
1971-88 LA360
1989-92 roller camshaft LA360
1993-2002 5.9l Magnum
?!?!?!
