You should all call Indy & RHS and ask them.

Are they going to make a head that will work with a 68 to 71 340 that have the pistons .035 out of the hole?



Steve, Factory blueprint spec on a 10.5:1 340 has piston dome .018" out of hole.

ICH will machine a .060" deep round quench pad in the heads for an additional $95.

I was talking to a nhra E/SA 340 6pk racer and he said nhra allows the piston to be .045 out of the hole. I just did a 340 an used L2316 piston w/ a 1.84 cd and they ended up .035 out of the hole. This block has been decked,I'm sure your right about the .018 factory spec. Thanks Ryan
