Classic MOPAR Small Block - 340 on Dyno

and what we have here is a mild 340 1972 lads to a 70 CUDA four speed car that just has a little tin, a little slight tackle on the heads and nothing else and there it is all on track to decide a lot of good things happen in Nick's garage, but the shop's reputation rests on the engines that are built and rebuilt here. they come from far and wide for their old school knowledge and limitless experience. Nick loves working on all kinds of vehicles and the engines that power them, but he has a particular soft spot for the v8s that came out of Detroit in the Golden Age of American Muscle and the engines made by Chrysler today, a part of chrysler history is on the

dyno

to test this freshly built 340 that belongs to Steve from Toronto and he got up early to make the six hour drive so he could be here for the final

dyno

test before taking his engine to house 9400 M why do we get it from the german station ok i just bought it yesterday they want to change guys we can change it where they want to run looking at the field it's ok everything is in time you know that was an experiment yes yes i looked for 39 jaskate.

I need you to pay $50. I'll show you your cc1. Hey, he was 67, yeah the other one was 71, so you'll notice the two heads weren't different. Same, yeah, so when did they start doing what she sees? Bought a 263 bowl to get it in the high nine now 63cc wattage this is a 750 s got factory jets on 73 not going to use it she's going to do one test you know what check oil pressure mechanics , all I'm going to take from 2800 to 59 ok set let me get the ones that was once a date today and they will go to 173 184 water temp which is air fuel ratio look at this copper is going Coming rich you see you look I want to run high 12 look what I'm running low too low 12 it's rich true but I'm not worried about this car I'm trying to tell you if your carburetor but another day they gave me more horsepower I take 34 it was better for you if i'm going to put a clock on you backwards check my dealer where i have them don't forget now it's running on my control box just when you put the car in you have to check the time ok i'm going to turn back time a bit the sound of a 340 on the dyno is always sweet, but it's even better for Steve today who hasn't heard his engine run in eight years it's been so long since he had an accident in his CUDA sadly that's why one on the manifolds is cracked very good but here it is back again to life with Nick working his magic we're going to flip the age with these joiners so you've got a card issue he wants to run it with and of course now that we've got the engine on the dyno our goal is to get his covered runny due to whatever I did to this one it kept running very thin idle so a good one brought another shower of carbon and we're going to get this over with so you guys get it right and you guys I'm going to say something okay when your dyno test and we don't have the turbine and this I checked if it's tight in this case just loose I'll take it off because my last experience on a big

block

swap someone brought his carb he put it on me he put the turbine I didn't check this but i didn't expect it was loose we did a final test on that dyno and then all of a sudden we had a big noise we turned it off and found this through the piston the carb cranking anyway it was a bad experience that's why I take them well.

Let's play something, guys. I need a breakdown yard. BAM: no, it's not okay, okay, now I'll speed it up. Check this out. I could bring the 32 or 34 there was a minute because everything happens to you from 30 and racia The other sour car was in red the whole time no matter what I did there you know it's a little on the root side but You're good, you're good, you're good, oh, I'm sorry, well, when my shuttle starts to break. Gotta make sure I don't choke anything closer to nuts at full throttle so I've got a quiet opening here we go we're good okay let's do a first test run with the car that Peter I Steve just brought in this morning so that we have a perfect fuel ratio. at idle so now let's see what it does at full throttle the same thing twenty eight to fifty nine hundred rpm three hundred rpm per second yeah yeah that's pretty good look at this is all money that's all money perfect and the power is the same power look at that ok the 30-30 is like before i finally got the info i want and it's pretty cool you don't have to do any jetty or meet up with roger on this are you here a bit we'll do it again and don't forget I'm waiting I'm closing it at 2800pm a full throttle a card Yannick commits crimes immediately while driving but this year I'm

block

ing it right now we're just going to get another full throttle test with him without the wrestling working on the Subaru and what are your friends mixing up? hurt we want to see if it does anything Pig on how it performs and we're just going to do the test and find out and that's the I don't know aspire a look at this tikrit group yeah there's your vitamin idle oil pressure is good at 40 lbs 45 pounds air fuel ratio let me check again theres good twelve seven twelve nights yeah we good if you rich its good even in the air while revving with the right carb in place nick got steves 340 running smooth up to fifty nine hundred rpm with the air to fuel ratio right where he wants it Nick is happy with the results so far but Steve is thinking about some food Nick knows the perfect place restaurant for tap 2000 here on the road there all this for forty so as long as we have a ger food burger and I do one more test again in six hours at 200 p.m. and call it a day we have a few more builds for stock come on Vasili special so we about to do one more test you guys might be the last test of the day hopefully you weighed 340 so we can put it on paper to take 3000 to 6200 rpm and it will be our final test before we take it home and hopefully we get it so let's go for it not yet yeah yeah girls this is what it is not what it is. up let's think it went from 200 we hope to get to 340 on paper that's it open the fan please let's take it from 3,000 6,200 RPM at 300 rpm for a second there was a 3000 M you look at now 3,000 like this that we're good that's when Carpathia that's it guys it's all good it's like everyone here has a little you better believe it's not the age it's the mileage here we go 3:35 was hoping to get 340 it's close enough to know that would die the most revered in this mortar was 339 and i tried to get three 40 and then i did anot your test this is there today again.

I got to 339. I couldn't get to the 340 mark for some reason and this is a 37 degree boner. now it's hot or what do you think what do you think no you know what I'm going to do a big degree let me do something a degree yeah I'm just gonna do this I'll just do this a little we're almost there yeah take another take no it's on the mark, this word, this was my original part of maximum words there, so we take another side, here we go, come on, it's 3:40 perfect, okay, now Britt this here princess you wait, you did it, print it we did we finally caught up to it at 59 Humphrey and got 340 we are happy to turn it off and now just before we take it to the dyno I'll make sure everything is good before.
