When I dropped my K-Member on my 1965 Dart GT it was due to using a real tall manifold and spacer on my....................

EDIT:
This Dart GT went from Seattle Area to Ft Devens Mass for a military school, back to Seattle and then to Augusta GA where I drove it 2 years and traded it in for my 84 Shelby. So well over 10,000 miles after I dropped the K-member with no ill effects.

Honestly, use an air cleaner with a dropped base if you dont want a hole in the hood, and if your wanting it to sit up a little higher in the front, turn up the torsion bars a little to make the front sit a little higher. If your going for a 60s gasser look, then why not a hood scoop? Buy a second flat hood, and cut one of em up.

Spacering the K frame though I have never heard of such a thing before now, from what others have said, was done on Hemi Darts, and Hemi Barracudas. However since their driving was 1/4 mile at a time, I would imagine whatever binding or geometry issues that may do to the suspension. was probably negligible. I mean how many miles did the typical Hemi dart travel in its lifetime? 500 miles maybe
