1971 340's True HP?

I don't know Rusty. I somewhat disagree. There is a HUGE gap between the 340 and 318. you take the Chev SB series over the years. Christ they had "a version" for just about every single HP LOL

I cannot even name "em all" anymore. Plus, the 340 was never produced in huge numbers comparitively


Chrysler likes to build one version for all vs making many special packages to try to keep build complexity minimal.

The more build complexity (variations), the greater the chance it will get confused/mixed up and mis-built...

The old adage, KISS, Keep It Simple Stupid...

Gm & Ford seem to like to build many variations and "special packages"...
