Tearing it down

Are you sure about the 340 stamping? This block has got the threads to put the retainer for the roller lifters in the valley, so i think it´s a late roller cam LA 318 or 360 - as far as i know there was no 340 made with this mods.

Block is stamped 340. Tore deeper into it last night and have already been outside at it this morning. Here's a few shots of old parts removed. Oil galleries and intake look to be very clean upon teardown, :hello1: Going to be removing headers and cylinder heads today. Then I am thinking of stripping the engine bay of the paint thats there and removing all the components in the engine bay and covering the block and strip and paint the correct color. Just need to check if I have enough paint stored away to shoot engine compartment.
