Question about the price of 340s

I can DEFINITELY agree that if its not a restoration, a 360, 440 etc can be built to be an awesome driver and racer,,,the 340's are more for purists who want to keep a car original or who like having a factory performance engine,,but geez,,things were tilting towards downright animosity,,i think hemi cars are priced high,,but im not gonna talk crap about them,,,anywho,,im right along with everyone else when it comes down to dollars per horsepower, a 360 is a perfect choice,,and thats coming from a 340 owner! I also tend to think 340's i see on ebay, etc,,are being sold by car ppl,,but not necessarily mopar ppl. They aquire a 340,,and automatically its priced as a rare historical artifact. Same as anything that fits a hemi car, but also fits a 318 car, is touted as a hemi car item to boost its perceived value.
