So I got up early this morning and took the 340 swinger for about 30 mile trip to a car show in Sweet home Oregon. beautiful area and enjoyed a wonderful Cruise through the mountains to get there. I never expect to win anything when I show just love the interaction and the mopars yes and some...

just when you thought you'd seen it all...hell I'll take two.

So after my new paint job last year I have been back and forth on which product to use to polish and preserve the paint.I tried a regular over the counter ceramic base spray on it and it worked okay I am still a fan of wax on wax off. Maybe it's just in my head but I feel I need to polish and...

So I'm lucky enough to have grown up in a beautiful spot in the United States.I now reside in junction City Oregon which is about 12 miles north of Eugene I grew up in an area about 12 miles from here. The Oregon coast is always had a very calming and special draw for me I spent the last 3 days...

So I have a chance to buy a weiand xccelerator in good condition it is 225.00 what do you think. I feel it would make a really good stroker intake.?

So let's face it opinions/facts are constantly changing on a lot of popular upgrades . Many preferred parts have been ridiculed over the years as no good junk subpar etc only to find out that in the right hands and combinations there as good as the new stuff sometimes even better. The last...

So I went to the first car show of the season last weekend Corvallis Oregon, really nice turnout beautiful sunny day 68°. Got there a little late there was a great variety of cars from old Mercury's Camaros Chevrolets Buicks, rat rods just a really nice turnout 120 cars. But as I left a few...

my name is Brian Okay to some it may not seem like that big a deal, but I had to take my 340 swinger to the paint shop for some corrections. This car's been part of my life for close to 40 years and is now fairly complete. I'm not used to it not being in the garage and being somewhere 30 mi away...

My question is this when determining what size of head gasket to run in relation to the bore size should the gasket be the same exact size as the bore or is it optimum to be a little larger? Keeping compression as high as possible is also a consideration.

Okay I grew up street racing back when GTO z28 boss mustangs, rambler scramblers, cyclones , roadrunners, judge,and every other badass name was on muscle cars and then there was the Swinger do you know how much s*** you got when you had a flower on the side of your hot rod LOL and lived in a...

I'd like to know the Good the bad and the ugly of the nine and the quarter Dana as it pertains to performance use. If you were building a 3200 lbs bracket car, 550 horsepower and about the same torque would you consider it as your differential. Do you feel it stronger than an 8 and 3/4 742.

So here's the deal, I'm at the point where I should buy another vehicle I'm getting close to retiring and my income is going to drop. My 204 Durango has been awesome I mean a great truck 4.7 SLT it's getting close to 120,000 miles still runs great and very clean but I feel it's time to make a...

So I ordered a part using PayPal that I never received. When I filed a claim through PayPal they investigated and said that my package had been delivered and they were denying my claim. I then contacted the post office which said the tracking number had been delivered to an address a mile away...

Let me clarify, what's the secret to pull the front wheels you know doing wheelie. How much horsepower would it take and what other supporting staff would help accomplish it in the 1970 swinger. It's one of my bucket list.

Would like to see others Christmas tree and or Christmas pics.

Really?

Here's my 340 6 pack, flowmaster 40 and 497 Mopar purple shaft idle notes. My first YouTube video.

For sale right now on eBay 509 Mopar hydraulic cam. $69 new in the box I was going to buy one but shipping was almost $60 to my house making it not a super deal but great Street strip cam if someone's looking for one several for sale.

So you guys are making me lazy, instead of grabbing my volt-o-meter maybe you can steer me in the right direction I'm kind of scratching my head. I started the 340 swinger yesterday and after running about 30 seconds it just died quickly. As I try to restart it nothing, no cranking no clicking...

So okay pretty simple question but all I've only really worked on is small blocks what is the difference between a big block rocker arm and a small block rocker arm if they're both 1.5 I realize that the spacing will be different due to the larger head of a B or RB but it's a rocker actually...

So it's been over 20 years since I went through my 340 and so much has changed. I'm asking for recommendations for main bearings, rod bearings, cam bearings etc. As it stands now I believe it will be a 374 cubic inch 340. When it was put together it had Federal Mogul mains and cam bearings with...

So I'm going through my 340 this winter and I was thinking that I should break in my new flat tap solid lift 284 camshaft in my 340 before I rebuild it, my thoughts are that if something goes wrong I'm not sending scrap metal through my fresh rebuild. Also my springs are softer and it just seems...

Ran across this and thought I would share it, I found it to be kind of cool

So I'm trying to tighten up the suspension on the front of my 340 swinger. I want to upgrade the sway bar and I'm looking for the best direct replacement. I've kind of settled on the QA1 any other thoughts?

I would like seasoned opinions on crankshaft material choice for a 450-500 hp 4 speed. Big clutch and 275 drag radials am considering a 3.58 stroke 340 . My question is would you feel good with a high-end cast crank like a 900 series scat or would you just bite the bullet for forged and never...

So I'm enlisting the help of anyone willing, I have a 1990 Dodge Maxi van that I enjoy throwing camping equipment in and taking off with my wife for short adventures. The problem is on hot days it will periodically not start. This is left us somewhat stranded twice both on hot days and the last...

So after the recent 340s stories thread it really made me start to remember what I was doing in those days. I thought it would be cool if you all would post any old pics of your cars or your Hangouts in the '80s. Here is a pic of my 345 stage 4 right before I installed it into my swinger...

So as a lot of you know I had the body and paint done on my car last winter my son paid for some professional photos. This is the original paint color and schemes, the SRT is my son's, these are screenshots off my phone please excuse the garbage on the sides.

Oh you dogs, I knew that would make you look! LOL here is a pic of the only two hotties I'm allowed to have at the same time. This photo was taken at function for junction junction City Oregon a couple weeks ago. Big Cruise approximately I don't know a bunch of cars.400 maybe.

So even though Mopar performance camshafts have been discredited in some people's opinions I am a fan of the old DC grinds when used in inappropriate combinations. My question is how would you feel these two camshafts would perform in comparison to each other. One is a hydraulic oval track grind...
