parts swap

I have a 1974 new yorker broughm 4dr with a 440 and all the lux stuff.
I want to use the 440 in my 72 challenger and put it's 318 in my 65 dart.
What parts will interchange with both cars? I'd like to have PS in the Challenger and Disc Brakes in both.
Thanks, Crustye

the engine swap isnt that hard but you got to keep the 440 tranny with the RB (440). and the LA (318) tranny with the 318 same goes for motor mounts. as far as the PS and disc brakes im not sure.

you will be able to swap out the motors and trans (keep together) but as far as the brakes they wont fit and the power steering will work but only if you allready have that option in the challenger and dart, but the dart might need to have the drive shaft modified a little and if you are taking the 440 and putting to the chally you might want to make sure the DS will slide into the 727 trans which im pretty sure it will but make sure and do some measurments to be 100% sure
