340 4 to six pack...whats needed?

[black71]

Any body have a parts list to convert to a sixpack...i have the intake and carbs/linkage, but am not sure about a thriottle cabel, kickdown linkage etc...this is the 4782/3 direct connection carbs...also any suggestions on initial jetting for a stock spec 70 340

the throttle cable & bracket are specific , as well as the return spring bracket , you have the vacuum carbs as per factory or the 3 mechanical carbs with the fuel lines on the drivers side ? If they are mechanical you will probably have to make fuel lines unless thay are on the carbs . Air Cleaner ? Center carb is 61-62 jetting , maybe 78-80 for the 500 cfm carbs ?
 Roseville or Mancini should have what you need

Thanks CP....yes they are the mechanical ones!   Bentpshrods thought it more necc to sink money into his tranny for his 71 instead of buildin the six pack...guess he wants to drive his car. Instead of leavin it sit in the garage

so what all is included with what you have ?
 I love the mechanical carbs far better IMO
 Great score

Yeah i'm pretty excited!! got the carbs, intake, linkage and air cleaner lid...now the search is on for a base for the cleaner

whats the difference between six pack and 4bbl kickdown linkage? and what throttle cables will work?

now the search is on for a base for the cleaner

What kind of base are you lookin for?
I have a non shaker 440-6 base plate and lid I'm not using. Is there a difference in 440-6 and 340-6 base plates?

Well the 340 6 Pack had a very unique & rare air cleaner base as it was only used on the T/A & AAR , but the carb spacing is the same as the big blocks as the fuel lines & linkage are all the same except when using the mechaincal carbs .
 The kickdown linkage is different as well as the carbs sit higher

PM sent.

I'm glad to hear good reviews of the 6 pack mechanical carb set-up because that's what I got this past weekend. Doing a little research, sounds like the preferred set-up for a 4 speed which is what I have.

Anybody have a measurement/pic of the kickdown linkage?
