K MEMBER SWAPS

[FLY 9999]

All Dodge and Plymouth B body K members from 62 to 65 the same and can be swapped/6 to /6 SB to SB and BB to BB?

 

[RemCharger]

Yes but, sb and bb are the same. The 62s could have the weird old mounts.

Small block and big block same K member just different brackets.

Should clarify by saying different engine brackets. Even the rubber insulators interchange between SB and BB.

Were the hemi k members different for those years? I realize the 62's had the max wedge 413's, but if doing a gen 2 hemi swap wouldn't the k member also have to be changed? I'm asking because I don't know.

 

[Dave6T4]

Yes, the Hemi crossmember was a different piece. The Hemi had a way different set of engine brackets than B/RB engines, so the crossmember was different to accommodate them.

Thanks, I learn something new here all the time.

62-65... Not a lot of Hemi's sold to the public.... 66 was the first "Street Hemi"...

 

[RemCharger]

The rarest of course being the 62-63.

Can some one verify the a different K for the hemi. Looked in my buddy's parts book and found 1/2 of the page missing. As per his memory, "BB and hemi the same".
