225 440 swap

So i got a 75 plymouth valiant and i got a couple questions about the swap. Right now i need to figure out what radiator to get that will fit the valiant and have the cooling power for the 440. This will help me buy the water pump housing so i can start it up on the staind!!!!!

In my swap so far i know i need new mounts, headers, rear axle, shorten drive shaft, disk brakes,....... anything im over looking.



Thanks....POST UP!

You''ll probably have to beef up the suspension and the body of the car.

Well, what size is the opening on your radiator support?
If it is similar to /6 one's that i've seen, you'll need to change your radiator support.

I would recommend the 26'' radiator for your car. Aluminum or stock depends on what you are going to do to the 440.
