440 in 67 dart

[wgood45]

h iguys i just bought a 67 dart gt with a str8 6 in it im gonna pull it out and put in a well built 440 ive bought engine mounts that will bolt into the existing k member instead of trying to find a bb k memeber and replacing it. my question is do i need to do anything with the torsion bars or the front suspension will the 440be to heavy ?

thanks willie

Ahh, grasshopper......you have much to learn.
Seriously, you should up the size on the front end. Try Mancini Racing for torsion bars and struts for a 440. My 67 came with the optional disc on the front. If your's is a GT it probably came with discs. With a 440 your gonna need them.
