's on the Cuda all other things aside, the 340 was close to the real power output of the 67 440 the 340 was underrated the 440 was not making real 375hp in 1967

We know the rated power shows a 100hp advantage to the 440, but I've never put that much stock in the ratings. I've heard the "real" gross flywheel number for a 340 is 320hp. How much power do you think a '71 340 makes? and the 440?

Of course the 440 would still have a significant torque advantage even if HP levels were identical and I agree with Sheldon; I doubt the weight is that far off.

I dunno....now if it was a 340 A body, then I could see the 340 out in front.
