Thanks! No mods needed 1967 was the first year Ma Mopar installed the 383 in the A bodys stock from the factory As long as you have V8 trans crossmember and tranny mount your golden on the back part What are you going to use for mounts on the front? I like and use Elephant ears or a front motor plate mounted to top of the front frame rails Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)
