Thanks all. It is getting a few changes, a 26" radiator and new shroud plus an 18" clutch fan and best of all, a new cam, comp XE268 to replace the completely junk Thumpr cam it has now.

Here is a pic of the console armrest, Interior is 100% now and the mounted 26" rad.

I am missing Carlisle because sometimes things out of ones control, happen. But I did manage to get the new/ upgraded radiator and shroud with 17" viscous fan installed along with a new XE268 Comp Cam. and did the Run-In.

The rainy season is here with the extreme hot and muggy weather, so the cruise ins and shows are almost non-existent or on days that are very tough to attend. but over the next couple months I hope to log some miles and vet it enough to drive it to the Garlits show in November. (4 hour ride)

We shall see. thanks for all the kind words, I will post a few more pics randomly as miles and time goes.

Appreciate that. The buy in on most B bodies and every E body is out of my budget and (no offense) I'm really not an A body guy, so I start with what i can afford and that i think has good styling.

it does pose an issue for selling though as many buyers want that SuperBee or Cuda even though they only have a four door budget

Well. I'll cap off this thread with a Class win at a pretty big southeastern Mopar Show.

Tons of compliments and many guys thought the hood was a factory piece.

So what is different to allow the big block install? I know you can make one fit in a domestic F Body but not without a fight.

Hi Kevin,

I used the Schumacher conversion motors mounts. Worked perfect for me. I also mounted a BB using stock BB spool mounts. That is a little harder. Had to drill the rubber till it had enough give to get the mounts to drop in. But that did offset the engine about an 1" to the passenger side.
