I have been running his complete k member conversion for a couple of years. Really stable at speed and easy to adjust and work on. Denny is great to work with as well.
72 Dart 500" low deck Indy SR heads. 10.40 @129 best so far

I looked at those after I bought one from Alterkation , looks like a nice piece ..
I bought the one from Gerst on my 67 ..

HDk (Hemi Denny) seems to have a great reputation. I'm gonna order a complete front end next week. He has been amazing to communicate with, answers all questions quickly.

Just remember the option is always there to weld in new front frame rails and put things where you want them.

Just remember the option is always there to weld in new front frame rails and put things where you want them. If this was a race car it would have a strut front end on it. I'm considering building my 65 Dart for the street car series that runs local. It would a Pro Street type deal, four link, big tire with a strut front and a LOT lighter than the 69 is.

No strut car will ever handle as well as an A frame car. Struts make room for stuff, and they're a little lighter. Beyond that, they're not as good. As evidenced by road racing.
They even reintroduced A frames to Pro Stock a couple years ago.
