Anyone got any questions, just ask

Cant wait for the video of it runnin down the street sideways!
 
LMAO, and I thought I cursed a lot.... LOL!

Thanks for the videos!!!
 
If your using stock steering column you might want to check the steering shaft / coupler clearance to the headers . I did a 5.9 swap which I know is not quite the same as you're doing but after I installed the motor I had to beat the piss out of the 5 and 7 tubes for clearance . Had I known ahead of time I could have done a better job . By the way nice work .
 
A know a guy who ordered a customized steering column from Flaming river to fit his ‘67/8/9 Valiant with the above drivetrain set up.
 
So steering coulmn... i ground down that slip coupler to clear header... i havent chopped down the end of the column yet, where it will hit the drivers ... but im ready to when i put interior back together...

Engine is just a 2018 6.4 SRT engine... took the MDS crap out and put in a nice cam...but its gettin ran by the crate engine computer setup
 
Grind down the coupler you say , who'd a thunk it . Man do I feel stupid for not thinking of that . Good to know

Ya, the stock coupler was pretty meaty to begin with... i didnt take too much off...
Ill try to jump on installing column maybe by this long weekend... ill let you kno how the final fitment goes
 
Are you using a challenger 6 spd? Did you order any kits from silversport or did you piece everything together? Thanks Dustin
