I AM TALKING ABOUT THE FRONT INNER FENDERS AND FRAME RAILS ? I KNOW THE CUDA OVERALL LENGTH IS 6 INCHES SHORTER BUT HOW ABOUT IN THE FRONT END?

Front end of the chassis is the same. The only chassis difference is the extra length (two inches) in the floor pan added just behind the front seats.

Bulkhead is the same.

But the inner fenders I am not so sure.

The inner fenders and the front frame rails are the same for ALL E Body cars and the same inner fenders also fit the B Body cars as well. Actually most parts will interchange from the Challenger and E body Barracuda/Cuda. There are a few exceptions however not very many. Most of the differences are in the exterior body parts due to different body lines and Barracuda/Cuda having a shorter body behind the doors. Other than that they are basically the same car as far as chassis and interior parts go.
