Value of a 340
NOT irrational.... just like the 540, 528 and 472 are ALL great powerful Hemi motors..... they are still NOT and never will be the motor that spawned legends the 426 hemi.
360 's are fine engines...BUT they are NOT from the years that Muscle was lurkin on the streets....
same with the 572 CHebby motor...FINE engine....just NOT REAL FINE LIKE 409 or 427 or 396
YOU are talking about the gut feeling, the love and the romance of the classic muscle cars and the motors they housed..... THAT is the entire REASON the accurate engine makes such a difference ( and I am NOT talking about the money part)
