I'm doing a Hellcat swap on a 1967 GTX. The stock wiper motor interferes with the super charger crossover manifold. I was aware that this would be a problem. I was told an aftermarket 2 speed motor may clear. I have looked and can't seem to find one. Would anyone be able to point mr in the right direction?

Go over to Hellcat Sawp on Facebook and those guys can give you a part number and everything. Holley was or somebody was making a different style manifold, along with the forward motor mounts you could still use a 3-speed. I hope you kept your T- bar set up.
Thanks I will check it out. I already have an Earls low profile manifold installed. Why do you hope I kept the T bars?

It will handle alot better. No matter how much you stiffen up the front end with a coil over it wont handle very good and put a set of huge brakes on it also. Its crazy that the 6.2 Hellcat weight almost 900 pounds. It weighs about 200 more pounds than an all iron 440. Handling may not be important to you but i live on curvy roads.
Did you install a coil over on something? What system if so?

No sir. Just stating what ive researched when considering doing a Hellcat swap from what others have experienced. Me personally if i did a swap i would definitely keep the T-bar set up.
Ok
You might want to consider actually having experience with something before giving advice. It would be a lot more credible.

Maybe so but Why would I **** an extra $5-$7k down the drain when several people have done it and regretted it? Thats all I need to know. I never see anyone bragging how awesome their Hellcat swap Coil over set up handles lol.

I'm shaving my firewall (not a Gen III swap) and this is the research I have come up with. Hope this helps.
1. Universal specialty power windows set up.
2. Adapt a Dakota/Van/Neon wiper motor in factory location with adaptor plate.
3. Adapt a Dakota/Van/Neon wiper motor in under the dash. (This is what I am doing for the shaved firewall).
Which modern wiper motor?
