RE: k-frame interchange



I did some checking years ago. As far as I know or I should say have been told the engine is pushed forward on 62 to 65 b bodys for them special factory exhaust header, manifold situations and a/c heater connections.  The later k members push the engine back to the firewall. The guy from QA1 told me this they make a new k member for the later cars. I don't know if firm feel sells them or just refurbishes yours and sends it back. I think Schumacher used to sell swap mounts they may have gone out of business not sure gotta check they had great stuff.

Subject: k-frame interchange

Hey folks, 
  I got the complete front and rear suspension from a 1969 Roadrunner for free from this guy.
   My question is : will the 69  K frame fit my 65 coronet?  My 65 coronet was a poly 318 to start with, but to bump up to a big block I understand I need a big block K frame.  I know I can get a swap kit for it , but I might want to go this route instead , and hey, its free.  I was able to find out that the torsion bars are the same length, so I can use the heavier  Roadrunner bars if I swap in a 440
  Unfortunately the rear leaf springs are a different length, by an inch.  I will put the 8.75 axle in my parts pile as those are getting hard to find.
