Cuda SRT8 392 Gen.III Hemi

Well, to J Dokes and R Patrol;
I never said anything about CENTERING the engine. That would be pretty dramatic and wouldn't work with a stock K, it's steering box, the torsion bars and the steering column. There's very little room for movement. However, cutting the mount brackets from the frame will allow you to bolt them up with the bisquits and engine brackets, all squarely to the engine. By shaving the bottoms wherever / however needed, you can then set the engine where you need it to clear at least some of the obstacles.

You both have completely different beasts though, since the U.S. car has the gear box on the K frame and the Aussie car has it up on the right frame. This would probably work the best with the Aussie car because moving the engine to the left side of the car does not lessen the clearance to the gear box like on the U.S. car. I must clarify that I'm only talking as little as 1/4", up to 5/8 inch. For some, that might seem like a lot of work for such little movement, but if the movement makes it all fit better, it's worth it in my view. I just see it as "you do what you have to do".

Given that I had the kit and tried many ways to make it work, I really have no faith whatsoever that you can just bolt it in. Everyone has different standards of what's acceptable though. I'm sure that some people have just beat on their headers or elsewhere with a ball peen hammer to make it work (and never complained to TTI) but I was not about to accept that poor of a fit. I started cuttin' and have never looked back.

There's a post from a guy (something like IT'S FINALLY DONE) who tells of trying the stock K; then some other K and then finally the AlterK. Take heed of the experiece he went through.

J Dokes, if you're willing to lower your expectations about the fit; settle with rattles and vibrations, etc. then you can probably get by with the TTI stuff. I settled for that kind of stuff when I was a kid, but not anymore.

R Patrol, although it doesn't really matter to me at this point, I'll watch your build for the fab shop's remedy. Of more concern will be whether the "fix" will work on a LHD cars like J Doke's...
