I'm gonna assume you're talking about a pentastar engine swap?

Here's the only build I can find on the web where someone is undertaking it.

Looks like a relatively straightforward install, with the exception of working around FCA's boneheaded electrical problems.

Seems like a neat swap though. 325 pound engine, flat torque curve, bolts right up to a Tremec 5 speed, 300hp.

Although I think it would be better suited for an A body than a B body.

Now if you're referring to something else, I have no idea what you mean.

I'm assuming he's looking for measurements for the location of the passengers side fender Penstar and it's two holes!  :yesnod:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I'm assuming you mean the fender Pentastar?

edit: previous attachment was for earlier model and would not have been correct.

I thought that might be it, the OP seems to think we are all connected mentally. He is lucky that we are not. Some of us have some strange stuff rolling around up there. I know that I do.

yes it was the small badge,i removed the inner splashshield and found the two holes.it fit well, back on the road,

Good thing that the emblem install has the car running again. Not sure how that affects the car but good for you!   :2thumbs:

tommymac

Hey dont beat me up,i just never put it on when we restored back in 02.Just a dumb little thing that cost 00 cents.

It was a joke. You are smart enough to recognize a joke !
