Do they repop these? They didnt when I needed them a few years ago. Yes, the originals are almost always cracked at the front edge. It took me forever to piece together a perfect set. I have some black ones but probably none that are perfect. OP needs to let us know what kind of car they are...

Swinger is longer than the duster and dart sport.

There is a local guy in the southern Maryland area I can get you in contact with. He does a ton of dana rears but im sure he can do 8 3/4 as well.

I think they dropped the flower in 75.

Disconnect wire at the sending unit and see if the gauge still reads full. If it does your sending unit wire is shorted to ground somewhere. Not a common problem but its possible. My guess would be an issue with the sending unit. The new sending units are garbage. I gave up and just keep track...

I dont think anyone has messed with the stamping. That stamp looks 100% correct font. Post a better pic of the casting number. The 340 used 360 heads the last couple years so that is normal. Did it have a windage tray in it? In a pinch you can use telescoping gauge and calipers to measure the...

I like the taylor wires a lot for budget builds. For my more expensive builds I run the low resistance MSD wires that you cut to fit. I like the fact that I can make them fit perfectly. They come with a cheap crimper but I have the nice msd crimper that produces factory quality crimps. Back in...

That is up for debate but in my opinion the ribs on the side of the block are a good thing.

No ribs on side of block so I think its pre 69.

I have broken at least two harbor freight pitman arm pullers. It all depends on how tight yours is. Sometimes they can be a nightmare to get off. Getting the pitman off is the hard part, the rest is a 5 minute job.

The main thing that holds back the later 340's is the compression. Bumping up the compression will yield the best results. Second would be good exhaust.

Warped head or deck, cracked head. Gonna have to pull it down.
