What is The Weight in a AMC CJ in LBS?
The 343 is a GEN-2 AMC V-8, the 360 a GEN-3. The difference in the block is a 0.16" deck height and corresponding stroke increase. The 360 uses a longer rod, and also a different piston pin height than the 343. I don't recall the difference in piston pin height (center of pin to top of the piston), but that is different as well. The 343 used 10:1 compression and a flat top piston with valve reliefs. GEN-1 heads have a smaller combustion chamber than MOST GEN-2 engines, the exception being 1970 through mid 1971 GEN-2 heads. These have the castin number ending with "291C" and beginning with "319". Compression will be less than 10:1 with the flat-top pistons even with the small chambers due to the 343 pistons lower pin height, but will be more than the stock 8:1 compression. The same is true even with big chamber mid 70-91 GEN-3 heads. The 343 pistons will mount on the 360 rods, just check pin height and valve clearance. Once pin height is measured compression can be determined. It should be around 9-9.5:1 depending on heads used.

No. The AMC 360 was not introduced until 1970. In 1969, AMC had in their V8 lineup, 290, 343 and the awesome 390. However, the AMC 343 is a 360 with a shorter stroke. (the crank being the only major difference between the two) So depending on how new of a 360 a person has and some other minor issues, it will bolt right into a '69 Javelin engine bay.
Nope.
AMC, American Motor Company.
Yes it did
There is no product on the current market that is labelled with or contains the number AMC 30. AMC 30, however, can refer to the AMC Studio 30 Movie Theaters that are located in towns such as Olathe and Mesquite. These theaters feature IMAX and dine in theaters.
There was never a V6 used in the ZJ. The motor in a 96 ZJ was an AMC Power Tech Inline 6 produced by AMC. This motor has since then been retired from grand Cherokees in favor of a V6.
