K frame lowering blocks

Straight axle would be your only choice for suspension. The SS cars couldn't dropped the motor unless they made a Gasser . You will have to drop the whole sub frame. Good luck with your project You''l need to drop the trans also .

Now just think about this before you do it and ruin your car. You will need to drop the torsion bar cross member with the trans mount You will be better off putting a Camaro or Nova sub frame under it and put Bow Tie emblems on it.

You must have had a bad dream about doing this because I have never seen this done without installing a straight axle and making a trans mount. This wasn't a dream you had a nightmare. Get rid of the K-member and build a Gasser but it has to be older then a 66 to enter that class.

I just don't understand ruining a car to save a hood?

I used a dropped air cleaner base and made my own sides out of aluminum. Note the base is almost the same level as the heat shield under the carburetor And almost against the fuel lines I used a filter top to help the air to come in
flow on the street. Took it off when racing the car and only used the base
