Deciding between the RPM and the M1 Single plane, the combo is 340 cam power range will be approx 2500-6800 3.91 2800-3000 stall. Are the M1's designed for street cars or Race cars? I seen some M1's with a 4500 + RPM powerband..not good for my purpose. What is the powerband of a...

I'm entertaining different ideas for Camshafts for the 340 I'm building. What do you have to do to a engine that was originally a Hydraulic cam to put a solid cam in it. Can you just slide the Solid lifters in and away you go or do you have to bush the lifter bores and monkey around a bit to get...

I figured why not try a Hydraulic Roller camshaft comp cams makes a XE hydraulic roller that looks good for the combo I had in mind HYDRAULIC ROLLER-3.91+ gears, Hyd. Hyd. 2500 to 6200 20-813-9 X28610 286 294 236 242 .544 .541 110° 2800+ stall, 9.5:1 compression, needs headers rough idle...

Do you think the added weight of a set of H beam rods is anything to be worried about for a street motor. I'm building a 340 and I want it to be Bullet Proof, I bought a set of Ross Forged Pistons from a FABO member, the pistons were the NHRA stock eliminator legal pistons which are a pretty...

Just looking at some pistons and I noticed some TRW Forged pistons have a wall clearance of .0015 Pistons like L2316F and L2329F are both that way but the big 12.5:1 340 pistons are .005 clearance. Does this sound right to you guys? Why can TRW forged pistons run that tight, thats...

What pistons are you running, compression ratio, gasket thickness, deck height etc. Anyone running .040 340?

I have a set of TRW L2322F pistons that I'm trying to measure but I"m not sure where to measure from to get the appropriate number. It seems though the pistons are somewhat tapered being the largest at the bottom of the skirt. Anyone know where they typically take the measurements for piston...

As some of you might gather from my recent posts I"m looking at getting some or all of the cylinders sleeved in one of my 340's Can anyone recommend a machinist/engine builder who is in the Spokane area or near by that can do a good job on sleeving at a reasonable price. Thanks Brambles

Yet another question for you guys. My 360 engine is balanced externally with the dampner and flywheel. I had always intended on putting the engine in a 4 spd car and the truck its in now is also a 4 spd. The kicker is the Dart I just bought is an Automatic, console shift 340 swinger and I...

Who's running this cam, how do you like it? A guy I was talking to who claims to build custom mopar engines was really talking this cam up and claimed it was a much better cam than the MP .484. I got magnum heads and am leaning towards the single pattern cam since the exhaust flows at almost...

So I'm running the numbers on the 1969 engine I just got, I decoded the stamping up by the cylinder head but the one by the pan rail I can't find info on it At first I thought it was the vin but what is the "B" for? 9B834334

So here's the story. Been looking for 340's for a few weeks and have found a crapload of them for sale but not within my budget. So I got a tip the other day that a guy had a couple, he use to own an autowrecker and kept the good stuff for himself. He's not a dodge guy but knows the 340...

I bought an engine today 9-24-70 to go into my 1970 swinger 340. The engine is all apart and has been sitting in a wharehouse for the better part of 20 years. Its a .030 TRW L2322 12.5:1 Forged Crane CCH-312-2 cam...

Would a .060 overbore 1970 340 engine scare you from buying it, hasn't run since the 80's kept in storage, no rust. Cylinders shiny and smooth still. What would a ballpark reasonable price be to pay for something like this, I know there arn't much details but I thought I'd do a little...

My engine is suppose to have a .040 quench with magnum heads and KB362 pistons, can I run a thinner headgasket to get my compression up a little more? MP makes a .024-.028 headgasket.

Would it be worth the cost savings to use my 1973 360 4bbl rods in a 408 stroker build for less than 500 hp motor or are the I beam rods in the kits vastly superior? Thanks

What would you say the best bang for your buck stroker kit is 500 hp max kit And Which bang for your buck kit would you buy if you wanted to go over 500 hp but under 750 hp? I was thinking about buying a 340 for my 1970 swinger 340 car but I came to the realization that its not numbers...

A few years back I had a engine built that I put into my truck but with the intention of later putting it in a car. I now have the car so the motor is going to get changed a bit for more performance As it sits now: 360 .030 over .010/.010 crank Recond Rods keith black pistons for...

How much oil pressure does your engine produce at idle when fully warmed up?? Since my engine was rebuilt I have run a stock volume pump and for the first few months while breaking in the motor it had about 25 psi at idle fully warmed up. Now with 14,000 kms on it ( about 9000 miles I think)...

O.K. here's the history. I had an engine built a couple years ago for my 1986 Dodge ram 4x4. I built it with the intention of running it in a car later in life. This is what I had done. 1978 360 block Stock crank ground .010/.010 Rods resized and small end narrowed to 1" for pistons ARP...
