So I'm in the process of getting my 340 rebuilt and wanted an estimate on what the collective through the HP is. It's going into my 66 Barracuda.

Here are all of the specs.

1973 340 block bored .040 over
1965 273 forged crank and matching Torque converter/transmission, etc.
KBHypereutectic Pistons
9.28 to 1 static 7.718 to 1 dynamic compression based on calculations.
1980 360 596 casting heads with very minor cleanups.

Comp Cam XE268H cam:
Intake Duration at 050 inch Lift: 224
Exhaust Duration at 050 inch Lift: 230
Duration at 050 inch Lift: 224 int./230 exh.
Advertised Intake Duration: 268
Advertised Exhaust Duration: 280
Advertised Duration: 268 int./280 exh.
Intake Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.477 in.
Exhaust Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.480 in.

LD 340 manifold
Dougs D450 headers
Carter thermoquad that was original to the engine. Carb number 6319S

So what does the collective thing for HP on this combo?

Thanks,

280, can you desktop dyno it? Rob will hook you up with reams of data if you fill in his blanks.
 
no freebie, PM Rob (RustyRatRod) and hell help you out and you can help him out.
 
I'll be putting it on my friend's chassis dyno when I'm done. I was thinking right about 320-340 gross. Sounds like I'm right on track. I'll be interested to see what the chassis dyno says.
