Yes, but
valve train is different, from the pushrods up.
Intake bolt pattern is different
You'll have to double check and correct accessory mount alignment.

Some of that info is dated and some of the MP part numbers are N/A.

By the time you do all that you can swap in the whole magnum engine and enjoy the benefits of better compression ratio and moly rings. or rebuilt the old LA engine with the Magnum pistons and rings too.

That opens up it's own can of worms. Balance is different and the rod needs narrowed to fit the Magnum piston. be easier to run higher compression LA pistons.

The Magnum engine gets you a roller cam as a bonus. You could probably go to a wrecking yard and pick one up that is equipped with fuel injection and find visible crosshatches in the cylinders. You'd be hard pressed to find a Magnum that was NOT fuel injected since they all were. You can also get the 318 and 360 LA's with roller cam provisions. FWIW the 87 318 I have for my 65 Cuda has visible cross hatches (stock bore) and was neither a Magnum nor fuel injected. The cross hatches are more a case of having moly rings and not because of FI.
