K Frames

[66/500]

Does any body know if a big block K Frame from a 65 Belvedere can be used on a 66 coronet big block ?

Check here.. You may need to use swap mounts for older K members.

NOPE The engine is forward on a 65. Use a 66-70.

You can use it but the fan will be in the radiator and you’ll need to fabricate a trans mount and a longer driveshaft, new exhaust pipes.

Folks use a 66-70 Kframe on the older B-bodies to move the engine back towards the firewall. I seem to recall it is 2” difference.

You can get one of these to put a B/RB in the older kframe. http://www.engine-swaps.com/Pages/ProductsYear/62.65bBody.html

Hey guys thanks for the information. I seen an ad posted on Craigslist that had a 65 b body K Frame posted complete with control arms and a disc brake set up. i thought it would be a good way to do a disc brake conversion.
Thanks again!

You don't need all that stuff to do a disc brake swap.
