1971 340 Engine Block
I am looking for a Mounds rd plant 340 engine with a final stamped assembly date between Mid March to early April 71 for my 430 SPD built Cuda. The Stamping date on the front of the block near the #1 cylinder should range between GM340P3503XXXX to GM340P3545XXXX, my VIN is 1B386601. I will buy either Just the block or a complete long block if you have a motor in that range. Please P.M. or email me at  myorangewagon@yahoo.com
Thank you
Ross

I have a 71 340 engine that is rebuilt and ready to go.  I'll have to check the date on it and let you know.  I think it's from a Hamtramck car.

Thanks Cody,

I have a 340 with VIN 1B298390.  Is your vin close to 298390?

Cody,
my Vin is 386601, is 88,211 to much of a gap between to two numbers ?

I Thought I would move this to the top since Carlisle is right around the corner and this is still on my list of things to purchase. 

I have one that the number is 1b378831
