This is truth, there was nothing for small block mopar back in the day that was easy or cheap. What impressed me so much about the 340 is how fast it was for stock trim. My buddy bought a stock 73 cuda and was running in the 13s with street tires with a good tune. I love the story's but to be fair how many of those guys in the other cars even knew how to drive or had optimized combos. 340s were terrors on the street for the unsuspecting victim but I'm with fishmens67 on the fact that the seriously fast guys had cubes and unfortunately the fastest guys where I was at had big block chevy engines. There was a boss mustang that did 9s and there was one night where an a bomb hemi came down, but that's a story for another time.:D
