360
Hi mate.
Good luck with the search. Tip top ones can be hard to find. Your lucky your on the mainland as here in N.Ireland they are like hens teeth. I drive a 1983 360 GLS as a daily and it is a fantastic car. If you are not in too much of a hurry,hold out for the best one you can find. Cheers Mark. |

well i did know there a bit of a rarety to find the turbo 360's but i am half tempted to get a naturaly asperated 360 and justdrop a 740 2.3 turbo into it me dad reckons it might squeeze in, dont know why but just like the idea of haveing something with a bit of umpth to it, which is no suprise why my next car (as im keeping my little 340 for a while just might end up being garaged and showed its self if she got enough life left in her) is idealy a c30 t5 hence why this is just in the pipe line lol

Turbo 360's weren't available in this country, and only a dealer fit kit in Europe. There are a few over here, that were made by doing what you are suggesting.
