Yep, got it together. Ran well. Developed blue smoke on downhill deceleration. Decided to build a 440. Sold the 340. Dropped a 440 in. Just now finalizing that.

Back up for sale! I'm ready to drop the 440 in the Coronet so the 340 will be sold! The 340 is out of a 1968 Dart GTS. I'm not sure why it was in my Coronet as I wasn't the one who put it in. (Yes the GTS registry has been contacted) Date stamp: 6/22/67, N Casting Stamp: 2780930-340 EIN or...

I contacted the GTS registry and they said it was a GTS motor. I had to pull the numbers while the engine was in the car so once I get it out I will double check.

I'm finally building a 440 for the Coronet so the 340 will be sold! (or put into an A body and then sold!) The 340 is out of a 1968 Dart GTS. I'm not sure why it was in my Coronet as I wasn't the one who put it in. Date stamp: 6/22/67, N Casting Stamp: 2780930-340 EIN or VIN: 8B392511 Serial...

You and my wife have something in common, you both know how to spend my money really well!

Funny. I’m going through the same question in my head. Except my 340 is in a Coronet and I’m debating between stroking my 340 or building a 440. I have already purchased a 440 block but haven’t made up my mind yet.

Are you still externally balanced or did you (can you even) concert the cast to internal balanced?

Well I was more going for internally balanced bs external. Also, if I’m going to spend money on balancing and turning then it might as well be a forged crank. This is sort of what I was looking for I guess. $400-$500 roughly. I would spend $75 extra to get a forged crank assuming the cost for...
