Cool, man-glad you're gonna do it. Well, it's been awhile, but let's see. The K should be the same for the A or B/RB, so you just need the brackets from a '66-'72 'C. The junkyard, or Schumacher has nice new ones. New insulators from NAPA-etc. Don't think Schu. has their trick 'Magnum' mounts for these, but may have added them lately. The 727-B trans and mount and a shortened driveshaft. NAPA prob. has trans mount, but Imperial Services is a good source for mounts and cables for these cars. If you can score a complete engine from a 'C' with linkage and all in one pkg. to rebuild that would be very cool, as it saves a lot of hunting for brackets and such. But Bouchillon is a good source for brackets, pulleys, linkage and so on. There are so many sources and Year One even has an 'A' and 'C' bod cat. Hoffman's Winners Circle up here local to me also has lots of the goods to button up loose ends. Well, that leaves you to extend your wiring harness for the front mounted dist. and getting a quality radiator with the outlets located correctly. You may need the 'C' oil pan with the sump clearanced for idler travel. You ought to upgrade the susp. and brakes of course. Check out Firm Feel-these guys are cool and have lots of 'C' goodies-esp.the recently released selection of T-bars, and sway bars. Just Suspension also has everything you'll need-including their own H.D. T-bars. Lots of options on the brakes-check out the ads. SSBC and others have what you need. You can also do the 11.75" Mopar stuff. If you go big on the 440 and want to avail yourself of the advancements in cylinder head technology, remember that they need the stock exhaust port location as do the 'A' Bods. That leaves you the Ed. Performer RPM, or for a bit more coin and power, the Indy EZ heads if you want the nice TTI headers to fit. TTI also has full exhaust for their headers or exhaust manifolds. I have three nice std. bore 440s, but don't know I want to lose them, and there's the shipping. I would look locally, or check an engine shop for their engine core suppliers. You will find lots of friends to support you at 'C-BodyDryDock'-cool site full of 'C'cruisers. Hope this helps a bit-good luck and keep me posted. L8R Don
