There's a place that sells bolt-in engine mounts to put a HEMI in a
Dakota; Schumacher Engine Services I think its called? I'm sure
someone here will post a URL or something for 'em. I just saw a blurb
on the kits in a recent Mopar magazine, and they also had them at the
Nats.
That's not to say that there won't be any trimming or other hassles,
but the engine will bolt up to the frame at least; that's a decent
amount of engineering and hassle you don't need to think about. :-)
