    Burned pushrod

    Hemi in A body modifications to fenderwells?

    I used a K-frame from Hemispherical Products that was just redone by welding on the Hemi mounts, it has 1/4" spacers on it, as far as the pass side inner fender I cut out a piece almost to the shock stud, rewelded in a new piece that was flatter.

    pros and cons of a 9 3/4 rearend

    I have one in my 67 Dart, tuff to break, heavy, can't change gears as easy as a 8 3/4, but sure looks good from behind, Moser & Strange both make complete rear ends any width.
