What is the difference between K members? Which one will work?

[01freeman]

I want  to know if a 6 cylinder K member will work with a 340. I have a K member from a 6 cylinder challenger and want to use it for my 340 challenger that needs one. If not what is the difference. How do I identify the difference between the 6 cylinder K member and a V-8 K member.
Thanks

The two are entirely different beasts.
The /6 has a totally different engine mount than any v8 k frame.

You will have to switch to a v8 K frame.
Should be able to find one pretty easily.

Six cylinder K members has different motor mount locations than V8 K members.
So, the answer would be no.
You need a V8 K member for a 318 to a 440, (minus the 426) to work with a 340.

Ok but how do i tell if the K member i have is a 6 cylinder or a V-8. That is my question. i am not sure what engine was in the car but according to the VIN it was a 6 cylinder.

OK......................

My K member is out of my Challenger at the moment, so I figured I'd take a few pics for you to clear up any confusion.

This is a V8 K member.
The red circles are where a V8 motor mounts up to it.
If your mounts on your K member are in a different place than those in the red circles, then you have a six cylinder K member and you cannot use it for a V8.

Hope this clears things up for you 
If you would like any additional pics, just let me know.

These are the only two pictures I have found for my /6 K frame.  Hope they help.
I will try to get a few more pics while I work on it this evening.
