Light too, 340s are about a ton when stripped

Rear mounted gearbox.

Meant to handle superb for the suspension spec.

740Turbo engines can go in a 360 without too much hastle as the 2litre 360 uses basically the same block.

340s are better really due to much lighter engines so less chance of understeer.

That car is a 340 and has a bog standard 1.7 in it.

Best thing about 340s is the 1.4 and 1.7 is the same engine renault and volvo both use, so the 440turbo and the renault 5 GT Turbo engines both fit with little work, though more work to make the manifolds fit in the bay properly.
Loads of room, just facing the wrong places once fitted longditudley.

I fancy doing a GTT powered 340 myself.
