The kframe and hemi slid in like planned , finally a level engine .. I still had to pull the valve cover on the passenger side .. I have to assume they did that in the factory , i just dont see how the steering box would clear without shifting the engine to the passenger side as far as possible .. rear end went in , wheels on drive shaft safety hoop The hemi kframe pushed my engine back one whole inch .. arruzzas mounts would not clear the battery tray , and neither did shumakers .. I really thought my car was tweaked .. Nothing really beats this real hemi kframe ..
