340 Cuda engine bay pics?
« on: January 26, 2007 - 05:17:18 PM »
Hey all, I am seeking pictures of ('70 or others that look the same) 340 Cuda's so I can see how all the wiring is channeled along the firewall and inner fenders, including battery cable routes and ground locations.  I am also wanting some pics of the top of the engine with the air cleaner off, so I can see the coil hook-ups and also how the springs on the carb.  I have had some success by looking at other pictures on here, but I'm trying to finish things up, and I don't want to put the fasteners on until I know it's exactly right.  I'm a novice at this!   :bigsmile:

My car is a non PB and non PS car.  Thanks to anyone who feels like helping! 

Winston

I have some pics but not of everything you want. Also the pics are from Challengers but should be close to what you need since the inner fenders are the same in each car, also it may help someone else out.  :dunno:

I'm trying to collect a good deal of 340 4-barr pics, not the easiest to find, Most of these were taken at the NATS.

Don't forget about the one on the left shock that holds the battery cable and the one way down on the left rear of the frame that holds the speedometer cable.

Thanks again for all the help.  Does anyone have any close-ups of the coil area and also one of the starter relay?  The 2 plugs at the bottom have me kind of baffled, as I see where the one from the wiring harness goes, but right now, I have one prong but nothing to go to it.  Looking down from the driver's fender, it would be at the bottom right of the relay.

Lunchbox, Yeah that helps.  It looks like in the pic that yours doesn't have a wire on that plug either.  Maybe a cap on it?  Thanks a lot.  I am wondering if it is there in case you don't use the fusible link?

Unknown, this is what it looked like when I bought my car, and it didn't run. Have you checked a service manual?
