Hi All, thanks for the welcomes...
toolman mike, here some info on the car I'm working on...
Im in the process of changingmy Australian made Chrysler Valiant (74 VJ model) Hardtop into a VH (71model) Hardtop.
From this,
(the white car photo) to something like this
(the Vit C car with Blackouts)
The car was a factory 318 smallblock / 904 auto.
I have spent a fair bit on the318 but now I want more HP.
318s and 360s are reasonablycommon in Australia, but I understand there were less than 400 units of the 340engines ever brought into the country.
I have a complete SB 6PK set up( manifold, carbs, cleaner, linkages) and I am ideally looking for a 340 (4stroker) to put the 6PK onto (rather than put it on the original 318 or a 360)
My aim would be for thefollowing spec.s
· 4.0 stroker crank
· Alloy heads
· 10.0:1 comp
· 450HP
Currently looking for the best way (least hassle more than just cheapest) to get a 340(stroker) long motor into Aus.
Cheers Guy, Scott
