    200cc port.

    Why is it so easy to make a sbc head with a 200cc intake port. But seams impossible for a sbm. I know they are of different design but it doesn't seem that different.

    Bypass hose

    Why am I blowing bypass hoses. Blown up two in a week. Only thing changed is new belt. Anyone else have this problem. I think belt was slipping before, but this still shouldn't be a problem. Thanks.

    engine mounts

    I have a 68 dart with a 340 in it. Is it typical for the engine mount studs to bottom out in the k-frame slots. Mine does and it preloads the mounts and they eventually sheer. I believe everything is right as far as the mounts go. Car was a 318 car form the factory. Thanks.

    Main bearings

    Can I use 318 main bearings in a 340. I want 3/4 groove mains and can only find them for a 318. Summit lists 318 and 340 mains separately.

    carb issues

    Have a problem with a holley 650 I just put on my 340. Car runs fine at idle, 1/4 throttle, and full throttle. It misses at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. Hole shot is awesome. You cant hit the throttle fast enough to make it bog from an idle. Full out seems to be just as good as the 750 it replaced but...
