1. Write the expression:
   $$
   3+4 \times 4+2-4 \times 8-3+40
   $$

2. Perform the multiplications first:
   $$
   4 \times 4 = 16,\quad 4 \times 8 = 32
   $$
   So the expression becomes:
   $$
   3+16+2-32-3+40
   $$

3. Now, compute the additions and subtractions from left to right:
   $$
   3+16=19
   $$
   $$
   19+2=21
   $$
   $$
   21-32=-11
   $$
   $$
   -11-3=-14
   $$
   $$
   -14+40=26
   $$

4. Therefore, the correct answer is:
   $$
   \boxed{26}
   $$
The correct answer is 26.
