Just to keep this thread going (and having a little fun with Jim
Jim do you know if the K-Frame was relocated when they put the big blocks in? ...................I think I know the answer but I just was curious why the statement in the '69 test article....and where the heck did that "relocation" remark come from
To the unknowing there were a couple of mods that had to be made to shove the 383 and 440 big blocks into the A-Body versus the /6 and small blocks right?
Like the radiator outlet and the oil filter interference, driver's side engine mount and driver's side exhaust manifold......

And grinding off the second motor mount boss when power steering was made available, and the proportioning valve heat shield, special plug wires, dipstick, and power steering hose and 90 degree adapter. never mind the 893 oil pan and maybe a few other compromises and parts bin scavenging for the 4-speed cars...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
