Ya got one of 2 ways to do it and it will take some $'s, patience and skillz.

78 isnt compatible (right away) with a 98 Dak's MPI setup and thats the parts you'll need. It can be made so by putting on a set of Magnum heads, AMC lifters, hollow pushrods and a few other small mods that I will guess you dont want to do.

Or you can get a MP ignition conversion kit, a 4bbl carb and then you have to figure out how to use your stock alternator, PS pump and AC on your premag 360. i have looked and pre mag (LA's) dont have a few bolt holes in the head for accesories.
To be quite honest with you.......unless your lookin for a lifelong project or are just looking for a dragstrip racer I wouldnt do it.

If you decide to, get ready for one hellofa brain buster, alot of research, alot of tinkering and much much patience!!

Good luck to ya.
