I did this swap recently using Schumacher motor mounts on my stock V8 K member and using 2-1/8" TTI headers. Stock stamped Hemi valve covers. Everything lined up perfect w/no issues. Maybe I just got lucky!





While I was going to recommend this is probally the best way to do the swap useing the Schumacher mounts, other than factory original parts,....but kinda late as Pete has already invested in the altered K frame,......you may be able to shim the passengers side mount a "little" to gain some clearance on the shock tower ( the big cast covers make it VERY tight)....but another POSSIBLE problem to focus on is the steering selector shaft clearance with the big tube HEMI TTI's,....you may have to use Flameing Rivers splined U joint assy to "sneak" by the header tube should this be an issuse using the factory knuckle,......IMHO Pete, you might want to cut a loss with the exsisting K frame if it turns into a real nightmare and run the Schmachers on a stock B/RB K,.....I know it'
s not what you want to hear
