    [WANTED] Home for a 340

    So I’m selling my 340 that belongs in a 68 Dart GTS. Since it is homeless I'm thinking about dropping it into something that just needs an engine. Anyone got any ideas? I don’t need a project as I already have one. Just something close to done I can drop it in, drive for a little then sell.

    Oil burn cloud on engine deceleration

    My 340 is blowing oil smoke out of the exhaust during prolonged engine braking/deceleration. It does not burn oil at any other times. This started when I switched from dual breather caps to a PCV and single breather. The engine vacuum was pulling a lot of oil through the PCV so I installed a...

    Eddy vs Holley CFM ratings?

    I was recently watching an episode of Roadkill Extra where Freiburger and Dulcich were discussing a 318 mopar. They touched on the carb and mentioned how Dulcich put a 800 Eddy on it and how normally people would think that's oversized but it works on the 318. They then said that Holley and Eddy...

    340 Emblem Sizes?

    Anyone know where I can find 340 Magnum Emblems they are about 6 inches long? The reason I ask is I just purchased a set off Craigslist and they turned out to be much larger than my current 440 set. I didn't even think about measuring first, doh. I can't find any resellers online that state...

    Can I make the secondaries kick in sooner?

    The car runs great and pulls great. When I floor it I can feel the secondaries open and it pulls like a bat out of hell. However, I was thinking it would be better if I could get them to open earlier on the pedal throw, say at 75% pedal vs 100% (I dont know exactly when they open on the pedal...

    I have two 12" electric fans mounted on a AC condenser in front of my radiator. I'm wondering if these, in the current configuration, would suffice for replacing my clutch fan?

    Anyone with Hooker Heads, what do you run for plugs and how do you run your wires?

    Backstory, I picked up a set of MSD Super Conductor wires as well as a R&M Wire Guide. At the time my 340 was removed from the vehicle and my headers were off. I didn't even think about clearance. Needless to say, these wont work with the #5 #7 plugs and the setup of Hooker Comp headers. The...
