225 to 318 Swap
 
Hi Guys,
I think I finaly found the engine to swap the 225 in my 69 Dart.
I found a 73 Coronet with a 318. I'm buying the whole car for $500. I was planning on using the engine and transmision, however I've been told that the coronet's crossmember will bolt right into the Dart so that I won't need the Schumacher engine mounts....Is this True???
Also, will I also need to use the drive shaft and rear end? Will this be a good idea or should I stay with the Dart's ones. Will they fit or will I need to modify something in my Dart?
What other part do you think I could use from this 73 Coronet on my 69 Dart? Steering...etc??
TKS

i don't think anything but the engine and transmission will fit but let's wait for a second opinion.

I have never tried it ... but I do NOT think that an A and B body K-member will interchange.

doc is correct the k-frame wont interchange the motor and trans will, also some lightbulbs and fuses,& cig lighter, the driveshaft and rear will be different aswell and wont bolt up
