New life for an old 340 (stock stroke)

Thats a nice 340 for sure and nice to see an engine that has a longer usable powerrange than all those underheaded oversized strokers we see so often nowadays.
For what its worth imho,big part of the short numerical spread between peaks often seen is due to the underheaded oversized strokers so popular today,and that is not to take anything away from this build,this seems like a very nice build.

Totally agree with your statement--the typical underheaded 4" stroker is finished before 6000 rpm and while that may be just great for some, it would not be an engine I would particularly be satisfied with. I wanted to build a 340 worthy of the legendary status they have due to their eagerness to RPM--that is not a 4" arm with X heads. J.Rob
