My curiosity is killing me. How did you get the engine in and out? It looks like you have stairs to get inside?
 
Dude with your results you are killing the competition!! Lmfao...wedge power..wtf I'm so jealous!!!
 
Good luck getting that one to hook up in that car.

The car that it came out of. What was it? How was it built? You will need the same combination or better to go as fast.

New engine. Built myself. Had scamp since new. Motor didn't come out of anything. I got lots of sb mopar stuff and blocks. It's a 340 ta block when started out. She does good on street and track.

Just saying, to run those times with that horsepower you will need Cal Trax, ladder/leaf, at least Super Stock springs, Mini tub or full tub, subframe ties, basic cage or better. What have you got

Are we related? It seems so.

When I was in SoCal, I drove the Harley into the kitchen through the carport at the apartment complex. Luckily, no one was the wiser and at least it was a whole lot more secure than being parked in the carport.

I used to live in Denver, working the swing shift in winter which meant I was getting home at 0200-0300 all the time. I'm a cook, so it was nothing to get dinner going at that time. If you'd like to get some strange looks from the neighbors, keep your winter gear on (I worked outdoors), fire up the BBQ, grab some beers which can be kept plenty cold in the snow on the front porch, have a seat on a lawn chair, and get those burgers going!

Normal is highly overrated, IMHO. :D

By the way, that should be one terror of a car when it's all done. Nice work!

Maybe lol. I'm just a retired aerospace engineer. I got nothing but time. Why be normal? I've built Harleys and many engines in house in winter. I got computer software that I can input data and test breaking and stress points in metal alloys. When failure occurs I figure how to fix issues or make parts myself. Have 5 axis okuma and a lathe and Bridgeport at my disposal. I'm just not wanting anything that anyone else has. I'm unique I guess? My knowledge of 340's especially goes back to early 70's when I got my first mopar. Love the abodys. I'm building a new motor for a sb dyno shootout at AEM against Chevy builder. Pride and $ on line but no worries here. I know how to get major hp out of sb mopar hands down. Mopar or no car baby.... Take it easy hoss and nice chatting. If you ever get to ks look me up and come have a few brews and we go riding or just hangout. My son lives in Estes Park Co. I love the state and go often to visit. Later on hoss-

I guess you guys missed it.....

Yes I did miss that, thanks Dwayne.

I will just wait for the video of the tachometer, that is stuck at 3000rpm, before the engine is started. Then again maybe the eddys are the Victor's and I will have to eat my words, but it sure would have been nice to see bore x stroke and a little bit of a rundown. J.Rob
 
IDK why you would not share the info to help us other MoPar brothers and sister out, but if that’s the way.....

Ha ha. Do research. Guys getting 700 hp and then sum. Knowledge isn't always free. Why would I want someone having the bill to my builds? It's my edge over others. I'm unique. Don't want copycats. Some people I swear. Enjoy your site and good luck. Do your own research guys. Come on.....

Just out of curiosity, how did you arrive at the 650 hp number?

The GUY's you are referring to really don't need your help. and the cylinder head you chose would be way down on my list.
but then again, you have the help from Farmtrucks engine builder.
