The prices seem to have stabilized a bit in the last couple years. Now the early and late ones are starting to move up since the rest have become too costly for the normal joe. I wish you all the luck in obtaining your old car back. I found my old Challenger after looking for 20 years. I...

left motor mount rear mounting tab is nonexistent on a-body 383 blocks as it attaches to the front bosses instead.

agreed, the vinyl is pretty rare as I have only seen a few fastbacks with it. Hopefully the vinyl has been kept if the car is still around. It is a surefire way to ID the car.

The vinyl top, if factory, was code V1T saddle bronze as there was no Tan option. It is probably washed out. Black, white, green, and bronze were the only top color options. The vinyl top, if it has been kept, is a very distinguishable feature to help you find it as they were pretty rare. What...

I have seen a lot of two to 3 weeks from block cast, assembly to car assembly.

While not common it is also not unheard of. The reason would be an over abundance of engine blocks. I have seen engines with gaps like that. If I am not mistaking Chrysler was selling 340's over the counter that or the following year for 3 or 400. And I think you're right on the .020 over...

not mistaking that car came from new york at one time?

BH29H9B263362 or 9B263362 I posted this so it will show in search engines if someone might be trying to find the engines owner.

adding vin so it will show up in a search engine. LS23H9B312529 - corrected VIN thanks Kegan - eyes and age a bad mix sometimes.

Hey Barry, curious I really thought the same thing 340 duster, but how do you know for sure? If you would be so kind - learn me. =) Is it in the seq numbering?

I think it should read FW340P29360388 F=1970 W=Windsor engine plant 340 P= premium fuel 2936 is Monday, August 11, 1969 is this engines assembly date. 0388th engine assembled at the Windsor engine factory that day. Possible VIN's. I think all 70 swinger 340's were built in Windsor...

what number is on the left front pad?

8BT29752 8 = 1968 B = car assembly plant Hamtramck (1?)29752 = last 6 of vin DW34022220345 D=68 W = Windsor assembly plant Assembled Monday, August 28, 1967 0345 engine built that day at that factory

LM23HOR304135 LM23 would be a swinger 340.

Cast date 1/15/1973

R-1 am radio Y-6 black vinyl top

The needed information is in the low case abc and in upper case ABC. There is a letter with a number under certain letters these are groups with option codes such. For a vinyl top what number is under the capitol Y? I posted a 68 tag. It is read as a-6, b-4, h-7, m-6, u-1 and D-9, F-7, N-8...

it would be easier if you gave the abc codes as: a-4,b-6 and ABC F-7, R-1 abcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz ABCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZ BH23 41 5 23 621 142552 BH23 = Plymouth Barracuda 2 Door Hardtop 41 = ENGINE: 318cid 2-bbl V8 5 = TRANSMISSION: 3-Speed Automatic 23 = 6.95x14 White wall Tires 621 =...

hell even I learned something from this thread =)

awe crap brother have at it!

interesting, I guess I haven't seen to many 340 dart engine vins. Good to know - Thanks!

lol FW 340 P Is as stated, 3205 is Thursday, May 7, 1970 0412 is the number of engines built day as of yours

Most 340 "engines" were built at the Windsor factory. I have not seen a 340 "CAR" from the Windsor factory. On the left front by where the head bolts on there are engine assembly numbers that probably start FW340Pxxxxxxxx. F=1970 W= Windsor 340 P = premium fuel. I'm Curious what are those number?

sure enough, if you blow the picture up a bit looks like a real light 76 on the end, I've seen a lot of (mostly all early) 340's built at Windsor, but not a 340 car. cool....

1970 R is maybe a B? R is Windsor Canada. The first 4 of the last 6 of the vin. Is it a light stamping?

The engine and trans VIN pads should read as such. 8B276736 OB222944 OB216760 All are Hamtramck built vehicles.

Weird on the 68 block showing a 1970 vin. On the left front side of the block where the head mounts there's a pad with more numbers likely starting FW340Pxxxxxxxx what are those numbers?

9 is 1969 G is St Louis Mo plant 219247 last 6 of vin from car assigned. All the information

wheels tell me you have that car I would be floored. It also just had a birthday on 3/31
