Definitely NOT for E body or after 70 year. No provisions for the sway bar to go thru the middle of it. Mounts look like small block to me. I do not see any bolt holes for the sway bar to have been on the front if it was a big block K member.
Just a guess since no Number tag on the front.

Jerry I think I can see holes on front edge for the sway bar mount?? Was it on a car when you got it? A or B-body?

It was on a 69 b body
I doubt it was original to that car. Maybe not to that particular car but still 68-69 #1- engine frame mounts are correct for those years 273-440 are the same, Hemi different #2- sway bar changed in 70 to inside frame, b-e body, holes are in all of them either way, #3- double shear idle arm mount, this is the only thing that could change years, not sure what year that started, I never had a 66-67 car, 65 and down are totally different.

Let me clarify a little
I got it off a a12 superbee
So definitely not from the car
It came from.
Why not? Your reason being?

Why not? Your reason being? this is a correct k frame for a 69 a12 car you made me dig this pic up from the past here. the one i have is obviously different.  i have another thread going with a couple of those k frames in it i suspect.

Interesting, my RR had the first k-frame pictured, never knew what month it was made, who cared about that back then. Guess they made the change over to new k late in the model year but still had a lot of sway bars to use up. What was the first and last build dates for the A-12 cars? Did they use the same frame on all of them? I never paid attention to the Pilot bee as to the style of K on it. My 69 Bee with an SPD of 2/10 has the 68 style bottom , so the change over was after that. As far as the comment of using up swaybars ???? The swaybar change happened for the 1970 model year , 69 model year cars would not have gotten them. The K was obviously changed before the model year started in preparation for the upcoming change.

The last k-frame shown has the holes for the early s-bar drilled not the 70 up, so they where using up what early s-bars they had, my reasoning.

I've had early 70's with the 70 frame that had the spots for the earlier sway bar mounts but the holes were not drilled all the way through. I've had several 69's over the years and I think all mine had the 68-9 frames.
