Hey cooter,
Did you used to be in Illinois?
There used to be a guy with your username (from a different forum though) that was a Mopar guy, from whom I've bought Dakota and D150 parts from, before

Lol, actually did see a 360 LA SBM in an Isuzu pickup. Chrysler just sucks with clearance on frt. Of engine to fan.

This 68 Fury 2dr post car was brought to me[customer's] to see if I could get it running/driving...As you can see from the pics it was a horrible hack job out of North Carolina. (Yes, it was a shop) Somehow, they thought a SBC was the answer to the /6 auto that was in it....
As you can see, I've completely reworked this travesty. First was to remove the SBC and related "engineering", then remove /6 mounting, and install proper V8 mounts on frame. Now to install full length headers and a mild 440.
Thanks for looking.

Are you also upgrading the torsion bas and adding a sway bar?

Well the customer has a sway bar kit but it's not a factory setup and you would have to have a lot of custom-made bracketry to make it work as I think it's GM based. Ask for torsion bars, the customer has decided to stick with the stock 6 cylinder bars for now maybe later as he if he decides he wants the car to handle better.

Finally got the headers reworked to fit better, but still needs a lil more work on passenger side. But mockup is looking promising.
