Timing of this thread is interesting. Just picked up a good 340 block, steel 340 crank, and X heads to build. Really looking forward to it as I have my own artistic freedoms on this one. Mahle forged pistons are getting the nod here, Scat I-beams, trick solid flat tappet cam, Hollow stem valves, and basically plan to revive and improve on the 340 legend as a high rpm big block killer. Some lucky owner will have serious bragging rights. Should I start a thread? J.Rob
