Project EH-Body
With the 545rfe you'll need to cut the tunnel and fabricate a new one since the 545 is a huge trans.

I'm starting to research a new project to install a 6.1 L Hemi into a 1969 Barracuda Convertible (original 318, 904 with console) and using RMS front and rear suspension. The Keisler 4L60E Hydra-matic kit looks like it will install without any body cutting or mods, but I cant find out for sure if the Mopar 545RFE 5 speed automatic will install without any body mods.
Can someone confirm?
Thanks
I put a 06 5.7 in my 70 duster,now have 1200 miles on it,I went the carb route although some have issues with this it is MY car and I wanted a carb for the ol' school look,I have had plenty of issues to work around as to I also went with the ol' school A833 4 speed with a hydrolic clutch ,That in it self was a 6 month back-up on getting the car on the road,it was dynoed on a mustang dyno last week and the results where 367 rwhp
Nice dyno number. That means its probably ~ 400hp at the crank.I put a 06 5.7 in my 70 duster,now have 1200 miles on it,I went the carb route although some have issues with this it is MY car and I wanted a carb for the ol' school look,I have had plenty of issues to work around as to I also went with the ol' school A833 4 speed with a hydrolic clutch ,That in it self was a 6 month back-up on getting the car on the road,it was dynoed on a mustang dyno last week and the results where 367 rwhp
I've read, in this forum, 485 lbs and more recently 533 lbs., they compared it to the weight of an all iron sbc. 485 lbs without accessories ? Thanks, ateam.8-[Nice job....
No, it absolutely does not fit without a lot of floor modifications. See FABO Forum on 3rd Gen Hemi Swaps. I just posted a lengthy expalnation of what I am going thru to weld up the floor.
