340 Buick

[Willowbilly3]

Whole drivetrain, as pulled, coming up on local auction. What would I do with that you might ask. Hell, I don't know but it sounds too cool to pass up if it goes for cheap. Feel free to express any insights about it.

The 340ci and 300ci were mfg from 64-67 typically in Skylarks. A stock 4bbl claimed 260bhp @ 4,200 RPM, 365 lb-ft @ 2,800 rpm with 10.25:1 CR. When muscle cars became the craze, they dropped the Skylark name (1968) for GS and left behind the 340 for a 350.

Here are some rebuild kits that are available.
