The "Throw Away 318"

It can be argued that the only real difference in restoring one model vs another is cost of that initial project, ie a hemi 69 Charger car vs lets say a slant Dart. Cost about the same for body/paint, interior, suspension, brakes, exhaust, tires etc!
Yep, the initial cost of each is far apart, plus finding that Hemi Charger vs the slant Dart!
So why is every guy thats into the 340, not just restoring Hemi Chargers and 426 Gen. 1 Hemi engines!!?????? OK don't be the first 340 guy to respond how you always out ran that Hemi B body cars bac:poke:k in the "day"!!!!
