Looking to swap a 318 drive train from a 1974 4 door valiant into a 73 duster with a /6. I will be swapping motor, trans and rear all at the same time. Question is will the drive shaft be the correct length or can I reuse the duster /6 shaft?

I am trying to get more info on the donor car to see what rear and trans are in it. It should be a 904 and 8.25 hopefully. As for the K member yes I will be getting the adapter mounts.
Thanks for the hopeful good news that the shaft will fit guys.
its really easy. i cut and drilled mine in less than 15 minutes. mine are doing excellent after a full year of daily driving.AH HA...I see the conversion mounts are a little more work than I expected. Did not know you have to modify the K member to make them work. Cut, Grind, Drill and hope. I thought they were direct bolt on. That may change the plan.
LOL i hear you there. my V8 dropped right in . i was very happy with how smooth it went. i got my mounts from shumacherThat's what it looked like to me, glad to hear someone that has done it chime in with a confidence builder. It usually looks easy until you get the rib cage spread open, then it all goes to poop from there.
