They are the next sought-after engine behind the 426 hemi. I'm amazed at the prices they are going for, that tells me they are rare. Less than 10 years ago I bought two original bore 340 blocks for $500 each, I'm glad I scooped them up...

Johnny, any news on the other dyno runs?

Good information, older thread. I placed an order thru Summit back in January 2023. A little misleading on their expected arrival date, was originally April then it mysteriously changed to July right after I placed my order. I called BPE and they confirmed the July date. Well, July 31st rolls...

1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible 3rd owner. Rotisserie restoration by 2nd owner, 1st owner was his uncle. Originally a Kentucky car, it became a 10 year restoration (on and off) for the previous owner. All metal work completed including new floor pan, trunk pan, quarter panels. I have...

Hi. Question for you. On forebodiesonly.com I had a post with WTB a Schumacher torque strap. Someone replied saying they had one but I'm skeptical because their join date is today. I asked for a pic of it and he sent me the pic you posted of yours. He said it's still in his car and he'd have to...

How about a running 340? Just pulled this out to swap a stroker...

Exactly and idiots like me have to deal with their issues. Do they realize everything you have to go thru to change out a pan? It's hours and hours of work. If you tell you that you stand behind your products the DO IT, DON'T JUST SAY IT!!!

Here's the Summit stock pan offering, 1/3 the price...

Having problems with Milodon as well. This is supposed to be a stock pan replacement. Works well if I only use half of my steering radius. Milodon said they will stand behind their products, asked me to email pics and info. That was 3 weeks ago, no reply...

Found a couple from someone on this forum, thanks!

Looking for a 90 deg oil filter adapter for a 340. Actually two if anyone has them. Thanks, Sal C

As far as I know it's a stock short block with a Mopar purple cam Duration 284/284, Lift .484/.484. Heads are 3671587.

Thanks for all of the replies. Great reads. As for fuel delivery, I currently have a Sniper system on my 340 that's in the car now. I'll start with it but plan on MPFI down the road a bit on the stroker. Then I'll have a well running backup sitting in the corner of the garage for a while :)...

2400 stall. Street, pump gas

Hi, Have a 340 in the shop being built, stroker. Aiming for ~450hp. Mainly for street driving, not a daily driver. Mostly sunny day driving, cruise nights, and shows. Currently have a 8 3/4" sure grip w/3.91. Currently running 26" tires. Not looking for a ton of highway driving but occasionally...
