I'm thinking flexplate bolts. My 340 sounded just like your motor. Bolt holes elongated in the flexplate.

I went through this exercise with my recent rebuild of my 340. I have the Milodon #30935, 8 qt pan. The photos are with the pan filled with 8 qts of water. The water level is 4 inches down from the pan rail.

I had my '70 Challenger starter restored here. Very satisfied with their work. I don't remember the cost. They're in Lansing, Michigan. https://www.precision-pwr.com/

Just wanted to add that the intake is an aluminum 6 Pack manifold. I was more concerned about sucking oil from the valley into the intakes if I don't seal well on the ports. I called Cometic about thicker gaskets. They have a 0.060 like Felpro, the next size up is 0.094 thick. Nothing in...

I used the washers to simulate the thickness of the intake gasket and limit the crush of the clay. I plan on using the Felpro gasket that leaves the heat crossover open. The gasket measures 0.055 / 0.060. On the drivers side head, that gasket thickness looks marginal on bottom the ports. Did you...

Got my open chamber heads (3418915B's) back from the machine shop. They removed 0.012 from the deck side to reduce the chamber size to adjust compression. They did not take any material off the intake side of the head. I've performed a trial fit of the intake manifold / heads on the motor with...

Some clarification on the interference problem I discovered. My first mockup of the shortblock used the new Race Tecs before the chamfer was added around the OD. The first cylinder I measured was #8, which had the largest above deck height, approximately 0.025. I brought the piston up to TDC...

I have a lot of clearance piston-to-valves. The interference I referred to was piston-to-head. I'll post more info when I return from the machine shop today.

This is odd sounding.... sounds like you have pistons like the Speed Pro L2316's... what pistons DO you have? Is this without a head gasket in-between head and block? Even then, this sounds odd... How much has the deck been cut so far, if any? Standard early 340 pistons stick around .018" above...

Working on my 1970 340. I have open chamber "O" heads (3418915B), 2.02 / 1.60's with tulip valves. Just got the heads back from the machine shop after a cleanup on the seats and valves. The combustion chambers are measuring an average of 78cc's, so they're going back to the shop to remove 0.020...

Just discovered these guys. dragracecarparts Bought some pieces for a 340 rebuild. Their prices were better than Summit and Jegs.

Here are the Ditzler color codes for your interior. http://images.tcpglobal.com/chips/1965-Dodge-pg02.jpg?_ga=2.98965469.2114627533.1509774430-1889927650.1509774430

Check these out. Made in Denmark. Axle stands · ABS5 / ABS12 · AC Hydraulic A/S I have two of a similar design when they were made by AC Hydraulic in Denmark. Excellent design, but now made in China under the Esco name. ESCO 3 Ton Jack Stands 10498 PAIR

Just a suggestion here. I just spent the weekend at Road America / Elkhart Lake for the Vintage Race Weekend. Quite a few cars in the pits had stickers on their valve covers from Motor Masters in Hartford, Wi. They don't have a website, but have a Facebook page. Motor Masters (262) 670-9145 Good...

Just wanted to give an update on where I'm going with this engine refresh. I talked to Jim at Racer Brown and he didn't recommend doing a custom grind cam to reduce the DCR. He said I needed to get the SCR down to about 9.5 for a street motor. I talked to a local engine builder (Opel...

What value of "intake valve close ABDC" did you use that gave you 8.19 DCR? How would this cam affect driveability? RPM band would move down? Idle quality and idle vacuum would improve? Or do I have those backwards?

I sent an email to Racer Brown based on your suggestion. I'll report back with their response.

"Besides that cam is a real torque maker, I mean compared to the 292/508." Are you referring to the '761' cam that is in it now, or the Howard's roller I'm considering?

Thanks for all the responses, I need to read through your responses again to absorb all the info. My car is a real 1970 Challenger TA 340 - 6 with 727 Torqueflite, Turbo Action torque converter, 2500 rpm stall, Mopar Performance Electronic Distributor with Orange Box. The car doesn't see any...

Thanks for your response. I went over my data and discovered a math error. Here is the data I'm using: Head gasket:Felpro 1008: dia=4.174 inches, measured thickness=0.044 inches, Vol=0.61 cu in=9.87cc "Perfect" cylinder is 0.425 inch below block deck. (block deck to quench flat) Vol=5.53...

I'm an E-Body owner and have spent a lot of time on this Forum and have been impressed by the number of knowledgeable people on small block engine builds, what works, what doesn't. So here's my problem. Working on a 1970 340. Currently out of the car for a refresh. I'm trying to calculate the...
