Very interesting...................I noticed you did not cut the shock towers. I've got a 528 hemi I'm stuffing in mine. Does anyone have any info on cut lines for the shock towers when using Bill's Alterkation kit. Templates would be nice. If no one has any perhaps I will "document" what I have to do and supply them with pics to Bill to help other gearheads.

Well, from what I'm hearing to stuff the 528 hemi into a 69 dart you have to cut them out. Also be aware I'm also using TTI's 2-1/8" ceramic header system under the car, not fenderwell.
You got more on this combo?

Something like this is required on the passenger side a-body.  Although since you won't need the shock mounts, you could cut more off and smooth it all out nice.

These pics are from Mike Horan's car I believe.

These are from a Dart Steve Magnante built showing some more shots of the clearance, including the reason you need to offset the master cylinder...

Here's one showing the issue without a valve cover, and the cut lines on magnantes Dart. The other 2 are a Barton hemi - The first picture has not been modified yet, and in the full engine pic, it's finished. Notice the heater motor can also be an issue...

I took the Belvedere to the track last night and weighed it, 110 Lbs lighter!!!!!!!! I could have taken my hands off the wheel at the hole shot and it would have gone straight as an areo, unbeleavable....... 6.70's at 102 mph........

First the K always looks great.

I like the cut and weld inners best. The old hammer way look like crap. Just my 2 cents.

I cut the shock towers off and welded support in the middle.Then made my own inner fenders that clip in.I prefitted Bill's alterkation suspension and my 440 stroker motor with indy 440-1 heads.Every thing fit good.
