Wasn't there a Dart version with a 340? I think that was the top Dart, considering what a boat anchor 383s could be.

Dart GTs were found with 360s in them.

A 340 Dart? Maybe. You're not thinking of the Road Runner, are you?

Darts came with 'em all.

Slant 6, 318, GT models came with the 340, 383 (with a smattering of 440s) and, in '74 only, a 360.

And I don't know where you got your information, but a boat anchor a 383 ain't. It's a big bloc with a short stroke. It winds up like a small block. The bigger motors might get it on the top end, but a 383 can match almost any of them in a stoplight race.
