    Moparnut, I'm still on my quest to find the 340 motor from my 70 Cuda.  Can you check the VIN on the block and let me know what it is.  Thanks.

    Well, they're always good for boat anchors or door stops!

    You must be confusing a chevy motor with a mopar!CHevy makes a great door stop,however a mopar engine should be admired on a nice engine stand and a blanket to keep her warm,lol :undercar:

    3267 seems to be July 9 1970 , this aligns perfectly with the serial # in the 400,000 range in the 70 model year
