I was also shocked at how much grinding was necessary to fit the starter on my 6.4. A picture like yours would have gone a long way to setting expectations.
How well does the battery mount work on a B-body? I have a relocation kit ready to go for the trunk, but I haven't installed it yet. I was planning on installing a relay box in that spot, but it looks like a really good spot for the battery as well.
I originally bought a BBK for mine, but it was expensive and the sensors didn't match the Terminator X kit I bought. I ended up swapping it for an LS one from Fitech and an adapter plate. It came with the sensors and was a lot cheaper. Looks a little better as well in my opinion. The...
I started mine in the last week or so. I decided to run my heater hoses on the passenger side rather than under the intake. The mixing valve is mounted on the passenger fender since mine is an AC car so it would be too difficult to make work without trying to move the valve.

I'm right there with you. I'm in the middle of installing the mid-mount kit on my 6.4 crate motor. I spent a year putting together my buy list, but 70chall440 is right. At some point you just have to start and pivot as you go.
The TR6060 is larger, so it requires more tunnel modification. The TKX on the other hand is smaller and doesn't require much if any trimming depending on the car.
$2500 for 6.4l and trans is a great deal. When I see them come up, engine alone is usually $7k+ and that's with 80k-100k miles. Make sure it isn't priced that way for a reason.
Usually these types of tools you can rent for free at the auto parts store. Is that not the case with these?
Regarding the heater lines, if you go under the intake, how hard it is to route back along the firewall? Under the intake would be a cleaner look, but I am unclear how much room there...
I haven't purchased this yet, but had it saved for when I'm ready to start buying. Seems like the same part number the OP needed.

From everything I've seen, the TR6060 6spd requires significant tunnel mods to fit. Regarding the handle, I'm sure you can swap it out to whatever you want. If you're planning on working on a challenger, you may get more help on the E-bodies forum.
Interesting. I was considering the Holley refit kit because I have a new tank and it's a bit cheaper. They also have a return-less setup I've looked into. I was also looking at the Aeromotive setup. I wonder if theirs is any quieter.
I'm curious to see what this looks like. I was looking at Dakota Digital this morning thinking maybe they had added support for the 71/72 B-bodies, but alas nothing. I'll be following closely as I'm planning on something similar. I'm leaning towards the T56 Magnum 6spd though as it appears...
That's a super helpful parts list. I've been working on my own for a future 6.4l swap. I've got a few more things I'm going to be tackling at the same time so my total is way higher, but it's cool to see how reasonably priced the swap can be done. How much of your list did you know you needed...
