This 340 I purchased is weird ('73 block, front sump oil pan, forged crank, '68-'69 unsilenced air cleaner, '68 factory intake manifold, '71 440 (low-performance) Carter AVS carb, 292/.509 purple shaft cam, .040 over cast aluminum pistons with four notches).
The rods and caps were kept together the way I found them during disassembly. However, they kind of look like they are all mixed up. foto #1: The one bronze-colored rod has steel colored bolt heads and a steel colored rod has bronze-colored bolt heads. foto #2: The rod cap with the number "6" looks like it has nothing to do with the rod it is mated with. foto #3: Rod numbered "4" has a large ledge/edge on the left were the parting line is (maybe that is normal?). foto #4: Rod numbered "8" just looks like the cap and rod don't match at all (at least to me).
