Thanks man. Heres a few pics of some valiants. The new hemi is a tight fit on the passengerside in these little a-bodies, but its doable. The alterktion set up I got made a few things alot easier. No remote oil filter, steering clears real nice, and i got the motor mounts for the new hemi with my alterktion. Just remember that the car 5.7 hemi is different then the truck 5.7 hemi. The car hemis alternator is mounted low on the passenger side, so im not sure it would clear the frame with out either changing up the the area were it mounts to or the frame it self. The truck hemis alternator is mounted high and clears the hood nicely. Im on abit of a budget as you can tell so ill go with the basic replacement engine and intake, but the 5.7 crate motor from Mopar has a traditional style looking intake with the throttle body on top, set up for a round air cleaner, and instead of the flybywire set up like the factory stuff, it is set up for traditional linkage.
