I have a very rare AAR 340 Block to sell. It is bored 30 over and has been filled. I have seen these blocks for sale for as much as $4500. Because this block has been filled I am offering it for $2000. I am located in Pasadena, Maryland.
Update:
I have what I believe is the engine VIN FW340P31700375 there is a small s between 340 and P. I also have updated pics and number 3 cylinder needs a sleeve! See updated pics...

Did you get a hold of Barry Washington who runs the AAR/TA registry? Got a VIN number you could share on the passenger side above the oil pan rail?

The 1970 Hamtramck Registry - Challenger T/A Registry Home Page

Hamtramck Historical - The registry for all '0B' models, from 4-door Valiants, Dusters, Challengers and Barracuda models, all are accepted regardless of condition or engine size. VIN and code information from parts cars, parted cars is appreciated as well
www.hamtramck-historical.com
 
I have not contacted him. I will look for the VIN tomorrow. I have to move some things around in my garage!
 
If anyone who owns BS23J0B303705 search's for their block on a daily or weekly basis they might catch this thread on a duckduckgo or google search.
I look daily for a few of my blocks.
I am just trying to help the current owner of BS23J0B303705.

Apparently this is a cuda and not a challenger JH car.
 
Ok, I posted a legitimate question or the seller.
It was removed.
How can you install a sleeve in a concrete filled block?
If I was to buy this, how could it be fixed?

The filler goes in the cooling jackets and not into the bores. When you bore for a sleeve, you don't bore into the cooling system jackets. @Hyper_pak

Broken cylinder walls can pose an issue as well as ready to thin cylinder walls. Cutting into the hard lock or concrete will be needed. Expensive and time consuming since the machine now needs new cutters.

If you find a guy willing to do the work, this can be expensive.

And the seller doesn't seem to know all about what it would take to fix it. He is selling a TA block that has been filled, and has a cylinder that it looks like a bomb went of in it. $2000 is a lot to pay for a junk block that may take thousands to save. Because of all that, this ad has turned into a circus with people asking questions and they may not have any interest in buying the block. I don't know about you, but I think the ad needs to go away. It's impossible to keep it under control due to the circumstances.
The ad is till visable. PM the seller if you are interested.
@fordch I am closing this thread
