Bigger K Member for BB Swap?

Slugger8985 said

Putting together a little parts list to finally get started on my 66 Valiant project and after reading a ton of posts in various forums it seems like the debate still rages on. Do I need to swap K-members if I am putting a BB into my Valiant or will some Schumacher BB spool mounts work just fine? Thanks y'all!

You have a couple options. There is no "bigger" k-frame. Its all mount related

First: You can use the Schumacher mounts, some of which require cutting a drilling but its minor.
2nd: cut off your mounts and use an engine plate
3rd: Build/Find a Direct Connection Big Block K frame
4th: Upgrade to tubular K (RMS, Gerst, HDK etc)

Schumacher mounts will work just fine.
