Yes, you read that correctly. Ma Mopar is again selling a small-block, 340-based Six Pack engine over the counter. It's been a long time since the prospect of buying a complete small-block, Six-Pack-equipped engine could be bought by knowing the correct part number to order. Since nothing shrinks time and distance between you and the finish line like cubic inches and a good induction system, Mopar's new 410 Magnum stroker small-block has all the goods for whatever your application. The basic ingredients include a new 340 block featuring four-bolt mains, high-flow Magnum R/T heads, a high-lift hydraulic camshaft, and a 4.00-inch stroker, heavy-duty cast crankshaft. Finishing off the bottom end is none other than an aluminum Six Pack intake manifold with a LA-style bolt placement and five-bolt Mopar cast-aluminum valve covers. the engine will look right at home in your vintage iron, especially without those extra valve cover bolts that scream late-model. The 410 Magnum has the right stuff to impress those on the drag strip and at the local cruise nights.

Say you don't want the simplicity of buying a ready-to-run engine. What if you want to design your own powerplant using quality parts? Well, Mopar can help you out there as well. Since every engine needs a good foundation, Mopar's new Siamese-bore block is also available bare so you can build it your way. Just in time for the hard-core small-block engine builders, their new 340 Siamese cast-iron engine block allows for large bore sizes up to 4.180 inches. The block is made from a high-nickel, cast-iron material and features four-bolt main bearing caps. The deck surface and oil pan rails are thicker than previous 340 blocks, making the 340 Siamese block the perfect choice when building big-cube stroker small-blocks.

Fire One Off
Just keep in mind, as good as these Mopar crate engines are, their installation simplicity is relative to making sure you have all the parts to make it work. If you're placing one of these engines in a car that previously did not have a V-8 or had a points-style ignition, a good electronic ignition should be on your list of required items. Mopar has made this electronic conversion available for quite some time and is required material for engines like these.
