    How is this trim attached? 68 Dart GT

    I know the lower trim on this car is attached with clips but I’m not familiar with this mid level side trim.. is it attached via retainers, clips, or something similar? If it’s attached via emblem tape.. I’d rather take it off It’s the thin side trim that starts by the side marker. It doesn’t...

    68 Charger steering issue

    Shoddy, dangerous work for a shop to do. Must have hired a minimum wage guy that was never supervised!

    Someone needs to start re-casting 340 blocks

    Are not the molds still around from the original 340 blocks? My understanding, all the 340 blocks were from the same casting molds. 68'- 73'. Where are they? Finding them would cut the cost down from starting from scratch. Maybe offer the "TA" (4 bolt main) instead of the light weight 340.

    Tips for the track?

    I have not been to a track that doesn’t require and overflow can. I have run closed end lug nuts forever, but always on a steel wheel. If you have sufficient engagement they might make you pull off a nut to show it. I have a loop, never had someone look for it.

    68 Charger steering issue

    After looking at front end closely, I ordered a complete rebuild kit. The upper ball joints look brand new except the boots are destroyed and not a drop of grease ever put in. The spindles are new along with the disc kit. Not sure why the other shop didn't address these issues. They also didn't...

    Is 20W-50 too heavy for my 340?

    I run that exact oil, have forever. I’m sure I’m leaving HP on the table with it, but it’s working for me.

    Someone needs to start re-casting 340 blocks

    I suppose you could unless you run into water boring for the sleeves. Some teen blocks are pretty thick. Sconic check to make sure.

    I'm no expert on this topic, but why could you not sleave a 318 block with 340 sleaves?

    273 commando cylinder head bolt torque specs ? same as 340 ?

    My 1121s @11.3 Scr, were almost into the valley by the end of the first summer. IMO the 1121s need a rougher deck finish to hang on to them harder. I caught the slide on the First of 6 teardowns. and that was with ARP Bolts, torqued to 105. I swapped to the bulletproof 039 FelPros, and ran...

    Should I be feeling more power?

    When I bought my 66 Barracuda, the engine was damn near identical to yours, but set at 10:1. It even had the same rearend/gear and transmission. It was lazy out of the gate, but liked rpms, which is what I have been told about 340’s. I wish I could tell you that I just installed a different...

    Should I be feeling more power?

    Thanks for all the input and suggestions, guys. Truly appreciated! Like I said, I’m a gearhead “novice” and don’t really know anything about the information you guys provided (thanks again). I’ll probably share this information with my local mechanic and see what he thinks.

    Should I be feeling more power?

    That the old 284/284 duration cam for a RB block. But you have a 340? There are several versions of the distributor used by MP. Timing light, timing tape and tach will be needed to find out what timing curve looks like. Search here for a how to do this. There's various Holley carbs with...

    Should I be feeling more power?

    ...are opening a lil too soon, and/or The stall is too low, but; The specs on that cam are 284/284/108; and .484 lift In at 106, the Ica is 68*, and at 700ft elevation, the cylinder pressure is predicted to be ~172psi Usually this is too high for open-chamber iron heads to run full timing...

    Is 20W-50 too heavy for my 340?

    I just changed my 360 out from 10-30 to 20-50, oil pressure with the 10-30 would bottom out in gear when warm, now I hold steady at 10-50 pounds idle to under load. For reference its a mostly stock 1973 360 that as far as I know hasn't been rebuilt, so my guess is the bearings are pretty loose...

    Should I be feeling more power?

    What is meant normally be a "tune up" - spark plugs, cap and rotor, set points, etc. and set timing and idle fuel mix. It wouldn't hurt to change the oil and just check everything (spark plugs, air filter, cap, etc ) at 2000 miles. Looking at the condition of these items will provide some...
