Yes and no. Yes, the crankshaft itself will physically fit with no problem. However, balancing is a completely different issue. If you are going to buy your crank internally balanced, get a harmonic damper and flexplate for a 318/340. If you are going to buy your crank as balanced from DC, please keep in mind that traditional LA 360s are balanced very differently than Magnums. Magnums require a damper and flywheel/flexplate with a considerably lighter offset balance than a traditional LA 360.

I hope that helps.
