how about a 440??

I'm all for you stuffing a bigblock into your Duster Chad, It's just too bad you didn't run across this before you got the 340 motor.
I'd still try to grab it for as cheap as possible, piece out the car (E bay maybe..?), and hopefully end up getting the motor and tranny for free when your all done.
That way you will keep the wife happy :wink:
Then you could still have your car painted as planned, and while enjoying your tricked out 340 Duster, you could slowly start piecing together an even meaner 440. Or just sell the 340 and do it all now... :twisted:
Either way good luck
