My second car, a 1969 'Cuda 340 that I bought for $1600 in 1970. It didn't look like this when I bought it though and it sure as heck wasn't as quick.

Did a first rate job rebuiliding this motor thanks to a machine shop friend who was into racing MOPAR big time. I think the stock 340 engine had 275 HP and when we got done with the rebuild it was at least 500.

I could make one pass loping through the local A&W and then I would have to get back on the street and get some air to the engine to cool it down enough for another pass through the root beer stand. :-) And, it would just barely run on Sunoco 260 as the compression was just shy of 13:1.
