Hellcat Swap Into 72 Demon

erict said
I bought a hellcat crate this week after several years of dreaming and saving! I'm in the planning stage and collecting parts to swap into my Demon. I will document as much as I can here. I've learned a lot from others' build threads - thank you

I've installed HDK, T56, subframe connectors, and a built 9" over the years, so luckily I have a good foundation to start with. The car currently has a reliably built LA 408 stroker with FI-tech fuel injection that I will probably post for sale here once complete or part out.

I'm mainly in collecting parts stage. The car currently has a LA small block and GM style T56. Does anyone know if bellhousings interchange LA to GenIII? ?

It seems that some brands list them as same part number (quick draw for example), but the quicktime I have list the 2 as different part numbers

You got my attention for sure! I put a 6.7 in a 72 Demon recently so I feel your pain already! Hah! I did a long winded thread on my build here on FABO. I ran into a multitude of issues but none that were insurmountable. It is now hands down my favorite car to drive! And I have one nasty Cuda so that should tell you how much fun it will be to drive. I got zero regrets, but I sure made a lot of mistakes along the way. There are several modern swap threads on FABO I would sure read them all as it will save you a ton of work and cash. There are some super creative guys on here for sure. I am just a knuckle dragging racer so mine got built that way, some of these guys have simply just built beautiful cars.
