RE: Later model cross member

[Chris Pape <cpape@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott I tried a 69 B body k frame in my 63 Dodge Max Clone only to find that the factory cross ram manifold hit the firewall on the passenger side and the max wedge exhauust did not       fit. Stick with the 64 frame.

Subject: Later model cross member



This may have been addressed before, but here goes....
 
Can anyone tell me which later model  B-Body
 cross member gives you a little more engine
set back?  How do you spot one? Any obvious
features?
 
This is for my 64 Savoy purestock dragger. It's
going to be setup with maxwedge and factory
crossram. What kind of clearance issues can I 
expect with the firewall and steering etc?
 
Does this change affect suspension locating points?
I need all the rear weight I can get for starting line
traction but I don't need front end alignment nightmares
either!!!
 
Thanks, Scott from LA
Still looking for that Hooper Dodge Maxie!!!
