How do you like your 340s ?

My everyday driver in High School was a 383 4 speed 69 Roadrunner. After a while I stepped up to a 440 with headers, cam, eddy intake and big Holley. I loved that car and drive it like that daily for another 5 or 6 years until it started to rust away. After I sold it I found a 69 340 Barracuda Notch. Before I got it, I was of the mindset that it was an economy car. Also, I didnt like the distributor being in the back (still used points).

To make a long story short, the 340 car was 100% stock and only 1 sec. slower than the 440. I'm on my 3rd 340 since. I really like the 340s! I also like that 340s only came as a hi-performance motor, never as a 2 bbl or in anything other than a performance car. My current 340 was just rebuilt with a forged 4" stroker kit. Getting it together now and cant wait to see how it runs.
