Thanks for your information.

Correct. The way I installed the distributor is the only way it will work tower 5 o clock. The vacuum connect to the distributor is so close to the fire wall....it can't be set at 6 o clock....it will hit the fire wall. I'm pretty sure it set it right years ago. This weekend I'll double check...

I think your right. Its been a while ( 6 years or so ) but I did notice some black marks on the balancer...I think I put there finding TDC. What is timing tape.

Not sure on the balancer. Purchased the car with this set up. I do understand that timing tabs did switch over from pass to driver (1969/70 maybe). The way my water pump/power steering are located driver side. No way a timing tab would work on the driver side.

No.... driver side first plug.... 1357. Passenger side 2468. The distributor can only slide in one or two ways correct? Not like a Chevy having to line up the splines.

Your input has helped me. This is a warranty 340 block...no casting numbers on the front of the block. The casting numbers 2780930 are located on the block driver side. If I remember there were casting dates 69/70 on the block. The engine has the MSD ignition and the timing tab is on the...

Trying to set timing....the #1 spark plug wire on the cap is at 3 o'clock and I think its should be at 6 o'clock. When I use the timing light the reading on the blancher reads. 1 .8 0 right on the 5 degrees mark. I cant see the one straight line on the balancer at all. Do I need to...

I need a tip on what type of sealer to use on the rubber seals and the cork gasket that I just bought from mopar. I used Permatex #2 gasket sealant on my 440 block to keep the gasket inplace. The 340 with the rubber flap seals at the ends of the pan not sure if I use Permatex Hi-Temp Silicone...

did the warrentee motor have any casting numbers or dates stamped on the block. thanks chris

Yes I was told that this was # matching car. The trans. matches the vin. but nothing about the vin is located on the block. I did see some other numbers on the right side of the block ,date numbers you say. I saw a number of a date that ended with 70. possibly the year, can't read the month or...

I did not know about the warrenty motors. thanks
