Is that a problem when using a stock k member or all k member when doing this type of swap

I do not beleive this is an issue with a tubular k-member (QA1, Magnumforce, etc) from pics and research I have done, but I have not done a tubular k-member install.  We are planning to do this on @CudaKat's '73 Cuda with a 6.1 Hemi but the car is currently at the bodyshop so it will be awhile.  There is a FB page on Gen 3 Hemi swaps that has some good information and pics and helpful guys.
Thanks. I got the QA1 k member

Very slow!  :(  Have not done much of anything since late July now, got a TV show and been working 80-90 Hr weeks for 3 months. I just finished that though, moving on to some movies now, the deadlines are not so tight on the movies so I'm planning to get some more work done on the car during the winter. I compensate by ordering tools online while I work :)
Thanks for asking!

I love the flat hood on that silver car....looks great, tired of seeing the typical two scoop hood :alan2cents:
Agree with Alan. The flat hood ties in nice with the clean shaved look.  :perfect10:

What are you doing for the driveshaft? Have one built with slip joint ?

Yes, I have a brand new shaft in a box that I'm gonna send off and add a slipjoint. Waiting with that until I have the engine/tranny in the car so I can take some measurements.
