MJ's 71 Beaver (Dart)

Not sure of the year but around 1975 on the big block Cordoba/Charger the lower hose is on the passenger side. You may try from 75-(78 the last year) for a big block water pump housing . Don't quote me on this but maybe.
Your correct, I did the below.
440 source offers a pass side inlet water pump housing
They sure do and I did it myself. The housing and pump made of aluminum saves a lot of weight.
Hmmm. bigger torsion bars... not a bad idea
I ran my 400/727 w/ the /6 bars. It’s not what I’d recommend but it was something I got used to quickly.

both if need be here… LOL!

I also used a Summit racing aluminum radiator. It made the stock fan a no go. Watch your thickness on the radiator.
