Show me your small block!

-
I currently sold the engine out of my car, but I have options on what to put in it.

The one on the left is a .030 340 with KB 243 pistons, x heads, luntai 60403 cam, ld 340 with 700 dp.

The on on the stand is a 360 mag, KB 107, aluminum heads, comp 20-812-9 roller and a M1 intake.

408 in a 67 Dart. Still need to get some black plug wires and will black out the intake the next time I have it off.

1st picture is my 408. still working on getting her finished up. Little farther than the picture shows. This weekend I got her started and broke in the new cam. Swapped out the valve springs last night and changed the oil. hope to be hitting the road in the next few days. 2nd picture is the 340 I had before, will be reusing the same valve covers this time around as well till i can get my aluminum sheet metal covers I want.

Heres what I had in my 76' Power Wagon, the 416 going in my Duster project will be even more unique.

Admittedly, I've done this at least once a week. I find myself looking for an excuse to send something out. I have a feeling that I'll be doing that on some Datsun stuff this summer... if you do Datsun stuff.

My friend bought a 620 like that. His is a '72 and he couldn't fix an ignition problem with it about a year ago and practically gave it away. I was bummed when he sold it for $200. It was really straight. I kind of wanted it for a driver.

That's a really unique setup. The bed threw me off. I thought maybe it was one of those unibody pickups. My car is just a '72 240, OG engine, etc, but I'm SCCA prepping it. I'll definitely be in touch on some projects, Leanna!
 
My early 80's time machine engine compartment, time to fire up my Flux Capacitor and take her back further in time to June 72. LOL

Ha! Hey 1Fast340, I've got one of those Holley Pro Dominator dual quads on my work bench right now. :-D

Keep 'em coming guys! This is turning into an epic thread.
 
Nothing fancy lol just my daily driver 360 duster. Air cleaner is gone because that type catches fire easy.
