Re: 64 Savoy High Compression Steel front end Maxie??

I'd think the documentation provided by Mr. Davis is sufficient. But you can call him and ask him too. You can also contact Jim Schild, who wrote the "Maximum Performance Mopar Super Stock" book, and gab with him. Greg Lane is another guy to ask.

By the way, there is a nice feature article about Davis in the NY Times:
