Volvo 360 bellhousing(s)

Hi guys need a 360 bellhousing for a project Im building for my girlfriend. Found a crack on the one I had bought (nightmare) and it’s warped while being welded up so it no longer clears the flywheel

Thanks
Dave

Re: 'Dorris' the 340

A few bits have been done recently, painstaking straightened the lips on the sills as a previous owner at some point smashed it up a curb, but I have also built up my struts which now look amazing! http://i1057.photobucket.com/albums/t383/GulfPetrolHead/12434153_1224860400877390_668954854_n_zpssmick...

All sorts of tyre sizes for the rear as they will be ruined from drifting and I haven't decided on a front size as I will need to see how the wheels fit under the arches, before I can decide width and profile. Diameter is 13" on all these badboys.

Re: sierra rear calipers for rear disk conversion

I did some research the other day and it seems that sierra standard calipers and discs should fit under 13"s so hopefully these will work... Would I be able to purchase a pair of the laser cut carriers/mounts off of you mate?
