8-pak. it's an 8 Pak block. they are quite uncommon. you should probably put it on the Bay.

ok, ric, i'll let you in.
the 70 340 block has the number 340-6 cast into it. alot of people think it stands for the 6 pack block. basically, they think they have a T/A block, which they don't. that's just the casting #.
that's where the 8pk block joke came from.

Bay?? that would be eBay. another joke as people try to sell outlandish stuff on there. you'd be surprised how many people would have bid on it.

I will have to get some time to take the dog house off to get some pics. I can say this much, it looks shoehorned in there for sure!

I wish the idiots at mopar didn't toss out the information that we all could use as far as production numbers and stuff like that. I immagine that it is a rare van, but I don't have the faintist idea on how many were made. this might be wishful dreaming, but it would be nice to have someone actually come up with the documentation for the 440 trucks from ma-mopar!

I have a letter from Chrysler regarding 1978 D-150 440 trucks. The letter states there were 74, 1978 D-150 trucks with the 440.

Remember this is for the D-150, and does not include W-150, or any 250 or 350 trucks. Remember also that the 440 was not available in the D-100 in 1978.

Boy did I screw up! In my last post I refered to 1978 Dodge models as 250's and 350's rather than 200's and 300's. I can't believe I did that. Most of all, I can't believe no one jumped on my case for that. Must be a pretty forgiving group here!

Thanks and please excuse me, Must have been a senior moment.
