A special model only available for the 1970 model year was the Challenger T/A (Trans Am), a racing homologation car. Street versions took the 340 and added a trio of two-barrel carburetors atop an aluminum intake manifold, creating the 340 Six Pack. Dodge rated the engine at 290 hp.
 | 1 of 2,399 produced. 29,000 miles. Fresh restoration. Less than 500 miles driven since restoration. 340/290 HP V-8 Six Pack engine. Automatic transmission. Go Mango exterior. Black interior. |
| The T/A model was created for the SCCA Trans Am racing series. Rules at the time required a minimum number of vehicles be built with the special parts intended to be used in racing. The unique 340/290 HP V-8 Six Pack engine was only ever offered in these SCCA releases. This only-year-made 1970 Challenger T/A remains highly desirable. 2,399 were created. (989 4-speeds, 1,410 auto) |  |
 | While rated to produce 295 horsepower, factory cars actually produced something around 330 horsepower. Hagerty suggests a concours example is trending around $124k. | |
