what do i take off? can i even do this? is it hard??? and one other question... do e-body headers fit on a-body's??? i'm transplanting my 360 from my challenger to my gf's 68 dart. the headers are a set of hooker headers.... i think they'll fit. tomorrow the surgery of the lung commences

The headers probably won't fit. The brakes can be swapped IF you get late (73-76) a-body upper control arms. You also need a disc brake master cylinder and prop/combo valve.
oh so you do have to use something from the 73-76 cars... i thought there was a way to get around that. i know that the normal thing to do would be to take the late a-body stuff.

You could buy tubular upper control arms, new ball joint sleeves to be welded to your existing arms, but the simplest way is to get the factory parts. You could also go with a complete aftermarket system that uses that small ball joint.
by factory you mean finding a 73-76 donor car? and just take the whole setup off of there? gotta go the cheapest rout... so buying new parts is most likely out of the question

Yep, that's the cheapest, generally. You probably will still need new ball joints and bushings.
looked up the headers i have on my challenger on summitracing website (i bought the headers from them) and found out that they do work on the a-body. here they are.
