Not a B Body but my Cuda is in Mopar Muscle magazine twice

[MoparThunder]

I know it's not about a B Body but my E Body is getting some recognition. I am in the current Mopar Muscle for the Carlisle Chrysler Nationals but also it will be a feature in the next issue! Unfortunately the info in this article is not correct and I am working on correcting it. Hopefully it will be correct in the next issue.

Nice! Potent small block too - it shows not everything needs to be a big block for lots of power!

My 73 (although no comparison since it's a street car) has a 340 and it's a great engine...

Impressive, did you do all the work and engineering?

BADAZZZ!

3200lbs punched out 340 and a 9.66ET

That is like bringing a gun to a knife fight!!!

Awesome indeed! You have one sweet ride and congrats on the mag article:headbang:

What can you share about the engine parts, machining, build? Please!

My 71 340 Cuda was 2 tenths faster than my 70 440 Challenger. Both were stock (except for headers on the 340), the Challenger was heavier since it was loaded up with options but still....the 340 was no slouch! But 434 inches of small block isn't exactly a small small block lol. Nice car!!

Yup, I saw the car...

Congratulations from someone else who owns a 1970 Cuda.

Ink is always cool!! Next year we should have a contest at South Mountain to see who has the fastest street mopar on the fairgrounds:eusa_angel: I might have a shot with my 3900 lb brick:blob1:

 

[MoparThunder]

I did about 50 % of it.

Congrats on the ink about that nice Cuda ! I was in the January 2016 issue in the Pentastars section. Looks like we are both famous now ! Ron

 

[MoparThunder]

How much boost? I don't see an intercooler in the pics (Unless i missed a pic) Do you just rely on the blowthru to cool the charge or running water/meth?

 

[moparmarks]

NICE. Very tasteful build. Looks like a blast to drive.
