Hi All,
I have a 1966 Coronet that originally came with a poly and I'm going to put in a 383.
I have heard that I can use the K frame. Is that correct?
What do I need to do with motor mounts?

Thanks
 
Nothing at all. Just new bushings for the motor mounts and then drop her in. You will need a big block tranny as the poly is a small block and won't work. My '66 Ply Sat was a 318 car and now has a big block and it dropped right in...cr8crshr/Tuck
 
Once you get the big block in, most people want to get a big block linkage setup, you may also have to modify your drive shaft length. Usually at that point you just get to re-sleeved and balanced anyway.
