Im considering installing the EDL-2049 Top End Kit on my 340. 340 was rebuilt to stock about 3,000 miles ago, and lacks some power. Has anyone heard feedback good or bad on the this kit or any Edelbrock Top End Kits?
Thanks in advance. Im looking for a reputable engine shop to upgrade the top end of my 340 Cuda. Engine was rebuilt about 3,000 miles ago, runs well but Im looking for another 75-100 HP. I believe cam, heads and larger carb would be a good place to start.

After much back and forth on what type of stripes to put on the Cuda, I decided to do factory correct. I really like some of the older stripes with the 340 spelled out and billboards, however since the car is numbers matching I thought it best to keep it closer to original.
I bought the Phoenix...
I wanted to post up an experience to save others time in the event they replace their starter and find the starter gear not engaging the flywheel.

Can anyone confirm the 340 hockey puck was an...

I wanted to share a few of my experiences on replacing the power brake booster on a 73 Cuda.

I pulled the old booster out relatively quick but...
