well probably not getting the 6.4 i thought i was. still in the market for a 6.1 or 5.7. wanna pull it out of a wrecked car from the salvage auction, as i feel this will be the best route. still going in an a body (67 valiant) with factory steering. what do you guys suggest as far as 5.7 or 6.1. want a turbo down the road. street/strip.

megasquirt can do VVT and it is amazing.
They offer a base cal and a plug 'n' play harness for 6.4Ls, too. I have 2 running but not 100% tuned yet (spring here, will hit a dyno soon). a-e-a.com .
F&B offers a bolt-on throttle body that flows more air and is cable operated, I designed it.
No major problems into A-body, shorten the steering col jacket a bit, milodon pan, TTi headers and mounts, remote filter.

That site is a front page only and hasn't been updated since 2004. That doesn't encourage me to spend money with them.

also anybody with experience, i would be able to get this into a valiant with the stock k frame. i have read it will be a tight fit but will work with the correct oil pan. I got a 5.7 Hemi core motor to fit in a 1965 Dodge Dart by using Jeep SRT exhaust manifolds, and coilover shocks to allow for the exhaust. I built a rack and pinion setup out of a stock K frame to take care o steering. The manifolds just make it in the early A, so there ought to be a little extra room in a 67 or newer. That is a truck oil pan , and I plan to shorten it and add back the volume with side buckets.
