Tractor vet I have a friend that owned a brand new Hemi back in 1969. He was just showing me the pictures of him with it and a lot of trophies on the hood from racing it. He was 18 at the time. He is very open minded about cars and has had a lot of different ones and said the Hemi had very little competition back in his day. The 340 Dart would have been a joke against a hemi car. I don't buy the 4 second 0-70.I don't think a Dodge Viper could run a 4 second 0-70 or a new Corvette for that manner. An 80's era 5.0 Mustang would run about a 5.8 second 0-60 and those cars could destroy a 340 Dart on the street. 340 cars were only good for mid 15 second quarter mile times on a good day. Hemi's were good for low 13,s or high 12,s and 5.0 stangs ran 14's out of the dealer lots all day long with no particular problem. The same friend with the Hemi bought a 90 mustang gt 5.0 car and with shorty headers, 3.73 gears, underdrive pulleys, synthetic fluids, hartman power box intake, skinny front tires and drag radials ran 12.90 at 104 mph without ever opening the engine. He said it was faster than his Hemi ever went and got over 20 mpg even with the gears.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
