Think 62 plymouth belvedere post car. Now has a 318 poly setting between the fenders. I have a 413 with str 14 cross ram that will be going in it. What will need to be changed? What motor mounts will i need? Any cutting or changes to the K member? I don't know so i thought it wise to ask. I'd love to have original exhaust and will be looking for a pair of max wedge heads. For now tell me about the motor swap please. BTW i'm Small Block over on A bodies. Thanks

You are able to buy mounts for that to change over.No cutting or welding to K member

Easy swap.They used two V/8 K frames.The early had a seperate bracket that bolted to the K frame and the motor mount bolted to the bracket.The other had the mount bolt directly to the K frame.Either will work.

Will Schumachers have the mounts you refer to? Wonder if any vendors at MMW will have what i'm looking for that comes to mind? You guys got any leads on a pair of exhaust manifolds or big heads? You can take a look at my starting point on the motor over at A bodies under general . See MMW, 4 th page.

You can probably find the (BIG Heads) on either Moparts or e-bay
The exhaust manifolds are Big Bucks

Hey Mark: I clicked on the Tonys thing and can't seem to find the head you were refering to. Any suggestions?
