Has anyone used the QA1 gen III hemi motor mounts with the QA1 coilover K-frame? Where the mount bolts to the k-member allows for washers/spacing to allow for some forward/backward movement of the motor. I'm getting ready to put my 6.4 to the k-frame for my 72 Satellite build and just wondering how many washers/spacers on what side plants the motor right where it needs to be.
 
I used the QA1 mounts and suspension on my 67 GTX Hellcat swap. I had to move the motor forward farther than the washer adjustment would allow. So, I cut the mount and machined a spacer for the other side. You won't have the super charger cross over to deal with so you shouldn't have to do that. If I was you, I would put it right in the middle and see how it fits. You may have to do it more than once to get it right where you want it. No perfect answers just gotta go for it. If you want pics of what i did DM me

Thanks the for the insight. Yours sound like a tough case! I just haven't seen many using the QA1 mounts. I think that's exactly what I'll do - try the middle and adjust from there. Thanks again!

I would very much like to see a couple pictures of your 67 after the hellcat swap. Curious how everything fits. Not looking to mess up the thread but it does sound intriguing

Not too much more than a Holley (complete) setup is... Wiring is time consuming and computers are pricey, especially if you want something you can tweak and tune on your own.

Honestly this is the biggest thing holding me up, on putting my G3 hemi in the satellite wagon. Trying to decide "stock intake or aftermarket?", "multipoint efi or throttle body? ", stuff like that.

Well...and money...
 
Honestly the hellcat is the best thing I’ve put in a car.
