I thought the original small block Mopars were on the driver's side - or am I missing something here? Is it possible to change the 8HP90 to the driver's side - or does the small block easily hook up the starter on the passengers side? One way or the other, trying to hook up an old LA type block or B or RB block is going to be really tough - or is this only possible with the newer Generation III hemis? I thought it would be cool to be able to hook up the old gear with this newer technology, but the starter position deal might be an absolute no deal situation.


The starter is the deal breaker? Just make your harness longer. Very easy to do. Yes, Gen 3 have the same bell pattern as LA and Magnum blocks.
