SOME of the parts will work. 273-318 engines have different length compressor struts as the 4-bbl intake is taller making the struts shorter. When I put a crate 360 with a factory 340 intake in my 68 Dart convertible that was originally a 318 A/C car I had to modify the struts. The original parts will work but modifications are needed. As said above 70-up parts are even more different.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

See the 340 engine assembly manual reprint here: http://www.faxonautoliterature.com/1969-Dodge-Dart-Engine-Assembly-Manual-Reprint-P20360.aspxVery nice to have - shows Mopar drawings of all the brackets and part numbers for A/C on a 340 plus more. I have the Plymouth version of the manual, which might be the same as Dodge. I think these drawings are a small part of what used to be available at Hamtramck Historical but were "seized" by Chrysler. This manual has drawings of all the "engine dress", the stuff put on the engine at the assembly plant, such as throttle cable, accelerator pedal, carb, PVC, fuel pump, starter, engine and trans mounts, choke, fan drive, alternator, PS, A/C. The drawings don't show anything done at the engine plant. PM me if you want a peek.

My advice is to go to Carlisle, PA, July 10-12 for the Mopar Nationals. Friday and Saturday are the big days. You can find hundreds of vendors selling used parts. It's a parts picker's paradise.
