Hi Roland- Haha… blaming me?? What did I do? Yes, I have the original K-member in the car, I only used the QA1 control arms. The 66- K-member will set the engine back
about 2 inches, and they’ll have to notch the mounts or make something custom. People have used the later K-member for better weight distribution, but many say it’s a bit of a pain because everything doesn’t line up perfectly. By the way, the next upgrade will be a full coilover suspension from Control Freak Suspensions, where I’ll replace the K-member and the steering box altogether.
And you might particularly like this: Since I’m entered into the Optima Challenge with my Belvedere this October, I believe I will be the first person ever to enter the Optima Series with a Poly 318. Hope you are doing well…. -Michael From: Roland Osborne [mailto:roland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
Michael- Everybody is blaming you for this confusion… Original post:
I have fitted a QA-1 tubular K member into my 63 Dodge Wagon. It is intended for a 66 and up V8 so the motor mounts do not line up on my 318 Poly. Before I start fabricating adapters, does anyone know a combination of mounts and brackets that might
work for this combination? Thanks! Thanks for all the feedback. Looks like Mike Harding stayed with his original K member. Hope I don't end up wishing i had! Help them out on what you really have in the car, and/or your recommendations!…
Best! Roland

On Behalf Of Richard Kinsley Michael has many variations. Did you check his latest? I thought he had completely replaced the K member in latest batch of changes. He did the steering box upgrade I know. Borgeson?
