This might be a stupid question but I was wondering if any other full chassis would fit under a Plymouth Satellite other than the Schwartz performance which starts at 10K and goes up incrementally from there to probably cost more like 20K delivered.
I know there would be some modifications cutting of the shock towers and modification of the Uni-body.
The goal is handling I want to put a big modern 6.4 Hemi engine in this car with a 6 speed.
Does anyone know any other options.
I don't want to do a Magnaforce/RMS front end and then have to do the rear end as well I rather do a full frame to cover everything.

But I don't expect that would be any cheaper.
Depends on what you want for handling performance. These full frame replacements are at the far end of the spectrum.

And Roadstershop but again, it would cost.

If a full chassis is out of reach (it sure is for me!), then maybe a chassis stiffening kit would get the job done.
I've seen at least one used on a project here, but I don't remember which one.
US Car Tool seems to have a good kit: http://store.uscartool.com/mopar-chassis-stiffening.html

These are made by ART:

Here is a link to a picture which shows how they install:

What about combining a rolled/wrecked SRT Challenger/Charger chassis with your body?

check out Gerst Suspensions, www.gerstsuspensions.com (http://www.gerstsuspensions.com) much cheaper and pretty easy to install. I have the front and rear kit on my dart.
And honestly, with subframe connectors and these kits, i really dont think a full chassis is gonna be all that much better

Being the owner of a 68 charger, I would have to say that unless your are heavy in the $$$$$, look for a new full chassis. Then having it put on the car. If not, the good thing for us mopar owners, there are plenty of other less expansive, PROVEN alternatives out there.

Even though its not a full chassis, Hotchkis Sport Suspension makes a awesome TVS kit for B & E body Mopars. We run the TVS kit with single adjustable shocks and leaf springs under our 70 Challenger and it handles like a dream!
