Now whether the B unit is for a slant six or V8 I cant tell. I can say that it IS NOT a HEMI K member.

The K member is worth FAR more than that to someone that has a car with a bent or damaged one. If for nothing else, you should offer it to a needy enthusiast rather than let it go to waste in China, only to return as cheap Harbor Freight tools.

Old, tired, and sometimes broke down. Me, not my car...
