I was wanting to know if anyone had some pictures or a how to it thread on notching a stock K member for installing a BB in a 68 Dart. I'm looking for a neat looking strong process. Thanks in advance.

The Schumacher instructions clearly state that the K-member needs to be notched 1" for oil pump clearance. Did you do this?

Sorry guys, I should have made myself clearer. I will be running elephant ears and I will be removing the stock mounting pads also. What I'm looking for is the mod to notch the K- member for BB oil pan clearance.

If you are going to run a pan like the one from Charlies you need to notch the k-frame. Mine had been notched, I have pictures of it somewhere but will be easier to just take new ones.....next time I go outside. If you buy the HEMI authenticity guide it explains how to modify....

Thats the other one I was going to post up but could not find it. :banghead: Good stuff in that thread.
Hey thanks to everyone that chimed in. I should have mentioned that yes I'm using a Charlies type pan with the tube in it for the drag link. Thanks again for all the great imput. I can always count on my A-bodies buddies to help out.
This is exactly what I'm shooting for. No mounts just a clean looking job. Thanks
