Are they the same? My parts book has a date of 1972 in the front so I would think it would include a 340*6, but maybe not. Can anyone provide me with the Chrysler part number of the original cam shaft and do you know does anyone make a new factory replacement for this engine? Last edited by Imrare; 09/14/15 12:53 PM.

There are three different casting numbers that might be on the core: 2899154, 2899205, or 2899206, depending on when it was produced. The Crane 969361 is a computer smoothed replacement for this part number. Regards, Chase
