Plymouth Satellite 340 V8 1966

General description : 1966 Plymouth Satellite The 1966 Satellite was the top trim line for Plymouth “new” mid-size model. Stylish bucket seats and a center console define as quintessential street rod equipment. Essentially what a street machine industry was built upon. The ’66 is sporting all new interior buckets, door panels, and rear seat done in deluxe pattern in white. Keeping to the correct look the dash has been left stock. The power steering makes driving a breeze. The dark metallic blue paint (code E) is stunning. The ’66 has the kind of “more” that sets one apart from the rest is a 340ci from a 1970 Challenger. The 340 V8 engine is one of the most iconic and legendary muscle car engines ever. Even though it’s a small-block displacing 340 cid, it can take down 400+ cubic inch big-blocks with ease. Building a B-Body 340 engine is the correct option for better front-to-rear balance. Plus, it’s always good to make a statement to let others know you’re doing it your way. It's probably mistaken for a mild but unassuming stocker. But when the 340ci fires up let the smiles begin. Horsepower and Performance sorry no dyno numbers, but it's hitting about 290 horsepower. However, most enthusiasts consider that to be a wild underestimation. Many argue it really makes more than 320 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque. Transmission is 727 Torqueflite with a console-mounted factory shifter. Differential is an 8 3/4 with 3.23 gear. The rumble comes from a dual Flowmaster outfit and a 2.5-inch exhaust.
