71 340 used Engine price

[Jim Lusk]

I'd probably be at $1,500 firm, BUT I would allow anybody to pull it down to measure and inspect or I do that myself so there are no surprises later. I sold my old '73 340 with '73 340 heads for $1,500, but it was standard bore with enough wear to need new pistons and be bored.

Casting # 2780930-340-3

Gator, that is the casting number, not the SN. Down by the oil pan and stamped.

What is the SN on the drivers side of the block stamped into the pad by the oil pan rail please.

Actually the number I see is on the passenger side above the oil pan.. 9*23*70

Look lower. Right above the pan on a machined pad. It'll look like this although this is a 440. Notice the oil pan in the pic.

9 * 23 * 70 would be the casting date of the block. It’s on the side of the block, it’s a raised casting.

The stamped sequence number would be on the raised ID pad by the oil pan rail. It’s stamped into the block ID pad.

No, the number is stamped on the drivers side.

No, the number is stamped on the drivers side.

Once again on the passenger side as all big and small blocks are stamped. Kim

I sold the 340 block minus the Air Gap Intake for $900. Thank you all for the input
