My very first mopar

andysdream383 said

Well to start off, im not a MoPar guy. This is my bro-in-laws dream project car, a '72 dart or duster(havent looked at it that close yet). Well unfortunatly he passed away the weekend before Thanksgiving, and i am doing everything i can to keep the car and get it going. He has everything there it just needs to be put together(i hope). The K-member has been swapped, front suspension completly redone to put a 383 HP in it. i need to put the motor mounts on, but not sure how to locate the correct position. not sure what tranny, but the gears are 420's with a mini spool. i probably will ask alot of dumb *** questions, but this site has helped me some already. Actually that was our rivelery, we was MoPar,(which gives me a rash when i get too close) and i am a Ford guy ( which made him go blind when he got too close). Thanks in advance for the help.

Rear Gear could either be a 4.10 or 4.30..Mopar or aftermarket didn't build a 4.20..

The Mounts go on the Engine and are Side Pertinent(Only Fit One Side).If you have a Set than you will see how they go pretty easy..The one that goes on the left(If this is NOT a Spool Style K-Frame)will need to bolt onto the Boss's on the front of the engine.The mounts then will have and isolator with a DIMPLE that goes Toward the Mount in the correct hole..
If it is the SPOOL Type there is One Bolt that goes in Parralel with the frame and the K-Frame will have a notch in the top in two places..U-Shaped...

The only BB Trans Mopar Built was a 727.Make sure to put a good converter in it..If not you will have ALL kinds of problems that you will be blaming on the Carb/Distributor When Driving..


Need any Help Holler.

Good Luck!
