Currently setup for a 360 but will work on other externally balanced small blocks using different counterweights. $100. Local pickup in the STL metro area, or shipping at buyer's expense

I had the builder add it to my 72 when it was rebuilt, then decided I didn't really want. Just asking what I paid for it, which is $100. Free pickup in the St. Louis, MO metro area, or will ship anywhere for postage.

No issues when it was removed for an engine rebuild. I thought I'd see if anyone wants it and the bolts before I throw it in the scrap metal dumpster. FREE Local pickup in the St. Louis, MO metro area, or I'll ship anwhere for the cost of postage.

Just following up to see if anyone has been able to get ahold of Don? A dozen phone calls and half-dozen emails since my original post, and nothing.

I went directly to the source and called the machine shop. He did not balance the crank. It's just the original, cast crank that machined .030R/.010M So...I essentially have a stock rotating assembly, with replacement pistons. The piston weight is 720g. I am hoping that I'm beginning to provide...

From the builder: "No weight added to the crank."

I've requested some additional information on the engine builder. He's waiting to hear back from the machine shop. I'm learning a lot in this process. The engine is numbers matching. build date on fender tag is June 1. I don't remember exact date on engine assembly, but I think it was mid-May...

I talked to the engine builder today...he says somewhere between 10-10.25:1 compression and the crank was balanced with the stock engine damper. Any converter builder reccomendations? I'm waiting to hear back from a local builder, Biltrite Converters

Absolutely! I just wanted a solid streetable transmission when it was rebuilt. I didn't really give any thought to the TC. He just supplied one, so I used it. I have attached the build sheet. I will reachout tomorrow for more specific info

Thanks for all of the help. After removing the splash shield to better access the counter weight, it appears that it is welded on the sides (and maybe on the top), so I don't see any other option other than dropping the transmission so I can gring off the welds to remove the weight.

Agreed. I drove it 3.5 miles on Thanksgiving and knew something wasn't right. That was the first time that I had driven it. I haven't started it since. I'll look tonight at removing the weight.

Thank you. I had found pics of different counter weights on TCI's website, and it stated that the butterfly weight was used starting in 1977. I didn't occur to me until recently that there were no 340's in 1977, so that probably wasn't the correct weight.

After reinstalling the rebuilt 340 and 727 combo back in my 72 Barracuda, I have a pretty terrible vibration. I thought I had it nailed when I replaced the aftermarket engine damper (that was weighted for a 360) that the engine builder installed with the factory rebuilt damper that I had sent...

Custom is a bit misleading. It is an OEM exhaust. He is even welding the over axle pipes to the mufflers like factory. I looked at Accurate, ECS and even Gardner. Their price was double or more. I guess my "savings" will be time lost.

Thanks for the insight. He was very responsive in February to multi email questions. Now nothing, not even it's not ready. My last email a earlier this week told him I'm OK with waiting. I can reuse what I have for now, but don't want to waste the effort of reinstallation if my system is only a...

Has anyone heard from Don or did anyone attending MOPAR Nationals see him? I ordered a complete system from him in early-February that he said had approximately a 6-month lead time. I followed up in May, and he said the schedule was still accurate. August came, and I waited until after The Nats...

This looks correct to me.

It's beginning to make sense as to why I couldn't make it work as an alternator bracket. The builder also installed the P/S brackets, but I bolted on the pump. I'll take a look at that again. Thanks!

Is this triangle bracket with the TOP stamping installed on factory A/C cars? When I received the numbers matching 340 for my 72 Barracuda with factory air back from the rebuilder, it was installed. I couldn't figure out how to make it fit with the RV2 compressor, so I took it off, and the...
