Go for a Spin in a 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A with 340 Sixpack Engine and 320hp

http://www.rpmcollection.com Steve Cage shows you his awesome 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A 340 "Six Pack" muscle car in "Top Banana" yellow.

The slapstick transmission function is used only for upshifts. You manually put it into first gear. As you accelerate - and the rpms are where you want it - you just slap the shift lever to the right.

In order to race in the Sports Car Club of America's Trans American Sedan Championship, Dodge built the Dodge Challenger T/A (Trans Am).

The 340 engine added a trio of two-barrel carburetors on top of an Edelbrock intake manifold, creating the "340 Six Pack". Horsepower was about 320 hp. The engine breathed air through a suitcase sized air scoop molded into the fiberglass hood. Dual exhausts ran to the stock muffler location under the trunk, then reversed direction to exit in chrome outlets in front of the rear wheels.

Reply to cadds08 question.

The '70 R/T came with the standard 4bbl.383. The T/A was a limited production of 2,500 units to please SCCA for its Trans- Am road racing series. Only if the R/T had a Hemi would it be worth more to a collector.

Hi there just curious kinda new to the dodge scene is the 70s R/T Challenger worth more or less than a T/A Challenger?
