Sad to here. He was my biggest influence when I started playing almost 50 years ago. Great tone, great melodic structure and just a bad *** jammer. RIP

Yeah, while I appreciate a strong running 360, 408 stroker etc. To me they're kinda like belly buttons, seems everybody has them. Again, I appreciate the performance, but I've had a special place in my heart for 340s ever since getting my clock cleaned (repeatedly lol) by one as a kid driving...

Those that have them like and appreciate them for what they are.

If I recall, the tube/connection was on the plastic plate between the MC and mounting surface. Dug up this pic, unfortunately can't find a better pic.

I have used red hi-temp rtv with good success.

Running one on my Duster 340. Work very nicely when paired with the 3500 stall and 4.30s. Given the OP is working on a truck, dual plane may be a better choice.

Welcome. Nice ride

To quote Louie Prima, "I got it good...and it ain't bad". Though without one's health, everything else is secondary imo.

Thanks for all the input everyone. I'll definitely try a couple different carbs to see what it likes. Ultimately the car will be enjoyed on strip/street rips and leisurely backroad cruises.

Yep. Blink and they're 23 yo adults....

Hey Mike, @EL5DEMON340 That's friggin awesome. I may just take you up on that offer! If nothing else, I can check out all the changes you've made to the Demon since we saw each other last. And gotta check out the work on the heads too. Thinking of doing some work on these new Eddys. I'll...

Thank you both for the quick replies. Much appreciated! I will definitely will be running an AF gauge to take away some of the guesswork. Be well, Pat

Hey Folks, In the process of putting the top end of the 340 back together. 72 Duster, 340, J-Heads w 2.02 intake, 727 w/RMVB, 3500 stall, 4.30 gears. The motor has what appears to be a decent cam (Unknown grind but really comes alive as the rpms increase), .30 over KB 1267 10.2 pistons...

Boom! Thanks! Clear as day!

Hey folks, Chasing threads and cleaning everything up for the new heads. Happened to notice this stamping on the block. Any ideas what, if any, significance it has? Don't know much about the motor other than it was rebuilt at some point in it's life. Thanks in advance!

Good luck with the troubleshooting man. You'll get it sorted out. :thumbsup:

:rofl:

Another Black TRV user here. Works great when I apply enough of it (learned the hard way LOL).

Probably couldn't find a picture of American soldiers marching in WW2......... wait. NVM

My Old Pig Aint Running

Thought they made a one piece 360 gasket. Might help?

Can always pull the pan if in doubt. Some earlier 72 340s had forged cranks, mine did. But as noted above, yourd appears to be cast balancer.

Ordered a complete set from Cass at Dr Diiff for my 72 rear drum Duster. Timken bearings, braces, gaskets etc.

Crazy for sure. Right up there with book banning and scary librarians. I swear people have lost their ever loving minds.

Good stuff Mike. Looking forward to seeing your handy work. The beast shoild respond nicely to the added flow! Be well,  Pat

Hey Mike, @EL5DEMON340 are you gonna gasket/port match the intake as well? Be well, Par

Great pics! Love the stance from the day. Was never a question. I had to try to get it with the Duster. Totally dig stock and restored Dusters. But old habits are hard to break.

I'm running one on my 340. Because that's what I had. Works well with my set up. 4.30, 3500 stall, rmvb 727, some cam. As Rumblefish360 noted, nothing really special about the install. Run what you got. You may find it suits your needs.
