  • Hello Jim, hope you are doing well.

    What all would need to be done to a 1966 Valiant Signet if we were to attempt to place a 1967 383 motor in there? Pretty sure we'll stick to a small block for this project, but just for laughs, what all would we need to do? The Valiant already has fender well header cutouts.

    You need to buy conversion mounts or make your own. Exhaust can be a nightmare on the narrow cars, but I've seen it done with factory manifolds. Everything starts with the transmission mount. Build from there.

    Thank you, sir.
    Yo Jim, this is Lee's friend Todd. I asked him to reach out to you regarding any leads on a '67 Dart GT. I appreciate you keeping an ear to the ground for me. There's plenty of junk out there, or just stuff I don't want. Thanks man! ~Todd

    No problem. I haven't been in the market for an old car for a very long time. I am shocked by where project car prices are these days. Good luck with the search.
    I was told you might be able to help me. I am curious about motor mounts for a Big Block on a 73 up spool mount K member. I have been told 76 Cordoba mounts would work. I could use your knowledge to make the right purchases. Car is currently a 73 slant six. Thank you.
    Hello Jim,

    I read somewhere you can make the early a body Big Block motor mounts. I’m going from the 273 to a 383. Is this something you still do?
    Someone had said that you might be able to help...(They only allow 420 characters so had to do a second post) thanks
    Hello
    I have 73 duster that I want to put a Big block in. K-Member in it has had mounts cut off. Looking for a new k-member. So my question is do I find a spool mount style K-member out of a 73-76 a-body, or would it be better to get a biscuit style K-member. Schumacher's phone has been disconnected, so where would I get mounts for a biscuit style K-member?
    I saw a response from you to another inquiry regarding upper control arms. I'm in need of a driver's side (left) upper control arm, preferably with ball joint and bushings installed/pressed. My vehicle is a 1972 Dodge Dart Custom 318 v8. If you are able to accommodate, please let me know what the price would be. Thanks for your time.
    Hello Jim
    I thought I would send you some contact info for me, if you get the low down on the darts.

    Jim, just a note to say hello. I was referred to you by bakaruda, I am restoring a 1969 Dart GT and he said you would be a great resource.
