Ok so I have a 340 that I am going to put into a slant 6 '65 Barracuda. I assume I need to get the k frame from a 273 fish or does that even matter? also I see people concerned with a center link, is that also something I need to worry about as well?
 
Motor mounts,V8 Center link, V8 torsion bars, V8 radiator, small block trans,
drive shaft,8 1/4 or 8 3/4 rear end, for starters.
 
Throttle linkage, gas pedal, kick down stuff.

Buy a V8 car that is not a Rusty car, to start with and save a Lot of work.

Trust me, on that.

Owned my own Mopars starting in 1976. :)
 
I have the small block trans already it came with the 340. But it sounds like I still need to get some more parts before even thinking about droppin the small block in. Ha ha. Oh well back to "Hoard and collect" mode.
 
I have an early A V8 centerlink. $100 plus shipping from 22657.
 
I used some truc 318 motor mounts with a 5/8 inch sppacer on the passenger side and 1/8 on the driver side . wors great and the holes for the frame to motor mounts ! I could take some pic's for you if you want.
