    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    I believe the OP, LS1Ace, has sold the Valiant. The thread has since taken on a life of it's own.

    The current springs on N8track's Valiant are the Mopar Performance Oval Track Leaf Spring MP4529414. For some added height in the rear, there is also a +1" height version which is MP4529415

    Also, the LSx can fit around the stock suspension components quite nicely. Tight, but doable. Here's a under car shot of Chris Shawvers 69 LSx Barracuda. Or, with the money you save by going with a salvaged LSx and not rebuilding a classic Small Block or Big Block mopar engine and not...

    For readily available sources of the Chevy pattern 904 check www.car-part.com and look up the 1980-1983 AMC Concord, Spirit, with the 2.5L, AT, or the 1982 DJ5L postal jeep as the search parameters. For example, I turned up 35 of these 904 transmissions using the 1982 Concord/2.5L/AT as the...

    1972 Dart LS swap

    I will add that there is an uncommon 904 TorqueFlite transmission that has a Chevy bellhousing. This 904 transmission was used on 1982 DJ5L postal jeeps with the 2.5L GM Iron Duke engine. The 1980-83 AMC Spirit, Concord and Eagle also used the Iron Duke/904 combo. I have 2 of these cool...

    Check the location of the filler neck on the tank in relation to the hole in the valiant trunk floor. When I spoke with the guys from tanksinc at MATS, he indicated that he had to modify the floor hole location in his 69 valiant trunk by an inch or something small like that. Apparently the...

    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    Get another k-frame to modify. Buy a cheap 73-76 slant six K-frame that has been destined for the junk heap, as it totally doesn't matter....you are going to have to cut off the mopar engine mounts to adapt to the LSx anyway. Fab the engine mount posts and modify the lip. Done. That's the...

    Chris used some S-10 conversion headers on the barracuda. Tight fit around the steering box and torsion bars. It requires some quality engine location and exhaust fitting, but it works. These pics are taken from his Facebook page. I am sure Chris would be happy to help anyone with more...
