Mopar E-body small block headers.

[om617]

Does anyone make headers for the 340 small block?

[Alan]

Just use sbchev headers ...

[Mike Kucaba]

Yup! port spacing should be close enough.

[om617]

Thanks,i`ll try look in my partsbox. But if i dont,who makes headers for the sb chevy? Longtubes preferably.

[Mike Kucaba]

A good set is in the '66 Chevy II (Nova) .

[Force]

Another good set can be found in the Revell 69 Camaro Z/28 RS.

Just make your own, works the best as you can form as you need.

The ones from the 66 nova fit the 340 in the amt duster like they were made for it

I continue to ask how to identify all SB MoPar . I remember oil Filter / Starter and Distributor locations are the giveaway .

So , how do you visually recognize a 318 (1st, gen and Thinwall ('64 and newer) . I know the Distributors are rear location . oil Filters straight out of the ®Rt. side of the Block . Starter on Ls.

The 273 looks like a 318 Thinwall , just smaller internally ? I don't remember any parts interchanging between the two . Oil Filter , starter as a 318 . Fuel Pump locations are different .

The 340 has a front located distributor , ®R side Oil filter angled back to miss the rt. side Torsion Bar , Lt side starter . user friendly to E Bodies . The 318 Oil Filter relocated and angled back for the same reason . The Dist remained r located and L side starter .

The 360 , buried distributor in the back again , to a front position located on the rt. side the Oil Filter was shifted . rt side starter .

The 400 cid was a BB ...

My question please , fill in the Blanks , correct what I've been able to what I've gathered please ?

Thanx ..

The Polysphere 318 has some unusual scalloping of the valve covers.
