Hello, I'm new to the board and I have a few questions. I have a 1940 Dodge 4 door sedan I am customizing. I have every intention of keeping it all mopar as a matter of fact I want to go big block and by big block I mean the srt10 backed by a 6sp tranny.

Should I keep the original spindles and do the ply do upgrade fo disc brakes or should I go with a dakota clip and If I do will it support the added weight a big block will bring to the table. These things are pretty damn heavy to start with Or should I just use the k frame from a cordoba or the like.

Any thoughts, opinions or feedback is helpful.

Thanks,
Steve

Attached are some photos of the car I am starting.
