front k member

if you install the tubular front k member from say.......pa

and purchase tubular a arms
do you need to go to coil overs and get the k member with motor mounts and spring perches?




or can you keep the stock springs and shocks with the tub a arms and the k member?

Exclamation

Although I am not using a BBC, it is similar to an SBC. If you opt for the spring perches, you'll be able to use the OEM style springs and struts. With either, you'll need the motor mounts. Otherwise you won't be able to hold the engine in. If you want to convert over to coil over, you should not order the spring perches. I have a PA K-Member with motor mounts and spring perches on my thirdgen, because I am using OEM style springs and struts.
