I have a 72 Barracuda with a 318 and want to swap it out with a 383.What kind of problems am I going to have and what do I need?Thanks

 

the truth is all most every thing in the engine compartment needs changed. the trans is different, i think the cross member needs changed i think. the drive shaft length. the radiator. the carb linkage, trans linkage. if the new engine was in different frame the the oil pan MIGHT? need changed. thats just the short list.

 

Thank you for the information,I can get the whole car which is a 66 newport which has a 383,trans ,and all the stuff for $1000 and the car runs and drives great.Take thee motor and trans out and scape the rest.Thanks Joe

 

correction i think the crosscember is the same for all engines. but best to check with someone else
