Quick question, is the Volare k frame like earlier b body's that a slant six k is different than a v8 k?

There is a deal on a Volare with no engine and I have a running 400 that I can drop in. But owner can't tell me of it was a slant or v8

Yes i know, My next step is to get the vin.

Get the vin.. oh wait. Lol. And no, the B engine isn't a drop-in.

I think the slant has it's own K with drivers side being high up there. I did a B swap with Shumacker mounts and had to cut the top off of drivers side of K.

While I have never owned a car with that k-member, I believe that the small block mounts are the same as used on 73-76 A-bodies, which means that the same mods done to the A-body k-member (http://www.bigblockdart.com/techpages/dck.shtml) should work...

Agree with buildanother. The slant K frame is different, with the drivers side perch being taller than pass side. I have a V8 Gran Fury with the engine out and the mounts are roughly the same height. Schumacher's FJM swap instructions mention that the drivers side mount for the slant is 2 3/8" taller.

there was a comprehensive article on that swap in one of the Mopar mags way back.

B block fits better than an RB and yes it'll fit, Schumacher makes mounts as someone mentioned. 727 was an option as was the A833.

It's no more difficult a swap than a 400 in an A body, probably easier in some cases (exhaust).
