New Hemi Swap with Borgeson Steering Box?

Well, the B bodies have way more room for all the components. You guys are expecting WAAAYYY too much out of these aftermarket vendors. The bottom line is there is not enough room to fit a Gen3 Hemi into a stock A body engine compartment. You can use the aftermarket as a start, but expect to modify; dent; cut; etc to fit it in. I realized early on and went with the AlterK set up and haven't looked back. For those who resist an AlterK or Denny'sK, you can get one to fit, but you're going to have a cut up, dented up mess by the time you're through and still probably have rattles and vibrations to boot.

If you want to do a "clean" install of a Gen3 into an A body, include an aftermarket suspension in your budget, right under the cost of the engine itself...

Send the headers back to TTI and do it C.O.D.!! They might get the message that there is a problem with their stuff and the borgenson box. Just can figure out why the a body headers have so many problems and the b body, me included, don't have near the problems. Mine dropped right in, a little close to the trans, but doable.
