I just tore down a 1/2 filed hard blocked 340 with 20000. miles and a spun rod and scufed bearings, the cooling sistem was 3core radiator all the shrouds and dames in place. on the hiway the oil preshure would go just below the 10psi to 1000 rpm numbers. had stock pan. you could not cruzse above 70 mph with this car (3.23). temp was tied to the speadometer. I dont think i will do it again. if you must a large pan and oil cooler would be my choice.anyone want to buy a 30 over 340 with hard block half way up.

If your serious...... then yes I know someone.

I fill EVERY stock block that I build. Mild to wild. 300 to 700+hp. Just like it is mentioned above I also build small mopars and get paid for it. Never had a problem and damm sure never over heated. Common sense comes into play here if its over heating you have a cooling problem. That problem comes from two places, engine oil, and coolant. Make them bigger via more capacity and you will be fine.
