K Member Identification

[19_Dart_68]

Is there an easy way to tell if you have a v8 k-member or a 6 cyl item?

Im sure there is a part number somwhere too, so if anyone knows where that is...

Thx

the right mount is quite a bit closer to the frame rail on a 6

If they are still up, go to the Schumakers swap site and they have photos

"Never mind?" Unless you guys are smarter than I, looks like the ID K member section is GONE

Schumachers site is a mess. They say they are coming back but doesnt really look like it.

I realize this thread is probably about 67-72 or 73-76 K’s so I’ll say something about 63-66 K’s. They are the same whether for a slant or V8; only the motor mounts are different.

My friend Chris (Motech/Temecula Ca.) bought Schumacher
a while back. I was down there and he is really making big
changes in the operation and organization. I feel that you will be
very happy with the products in the immediate future! I bought a
conversion mount to put a small block in place of a big block in our
73 Roadrunner Stock eliminator car. He is getting inventory completed
on many products that have been unavailable for a while.

He is one of the Good Guys = It just took a bit to get it sorted out again
after he acquired it.

V8

That is good to hear!

 

[19_Dart_68]

Is there a glaringly telling feature that says that it is a v8?

I see a '68-72 Small block V8 K-member with a C-body/B van manual steering box. That little round tag welded to it might have the part # stamped into it.

No, just the relationship of the mounts. I can recognize small block and big block mounts from 67-72, not much experience with newer cars and sixes.

Thanks for all the replies. Next, if you're game, we can play name that factory floor shifter!
(I think it's an E body shifter)

I was thinking 71 and up B body but I think E is the same stuff in those years. I am going to say but it's been awhile that the E bodies I had were equipped with a black t handle. So I think that is B body

70' E BODY SLAP STICK {IF THE HANDLE IS SHORT CAN'T REALLY TELL}...71,72,73.74 HAD THE PLASTIC '''''''''''' T '''''''''''' HANDLE, STILL WERE SLAP STICKS THOUGH

Im pretty sure my buddy's 70 Six Pack Cuda had one of these, I think you are correct!

70 ' ebody chrome stick was about 3-4" tall ,plus the knob . Ebody only ones that had the actual true ratchet type . There may had been some in some bigger sporty cars but were not real slap sticks not ratchet type. STARTING 1ST GEAR UP SHIFT , COULD ONLY RATCHET ONE GEAR AT A TIME . Great idea it was.

After thinking about it there were some B bodies that had slap sticks 71' till 74' they had the plastic ' T ' handle
