The 360 box can be fitted to a 340 shell as long as you are also fitting the 360 torque tube and engine!

Its a no go if its to simply replace a blown 340 unit.

The 1.4 and 1.7 boxes are the same btw

Almost every engine has a different diff ratio...1.7 and B200 injection are the same though. Front plate and input shafts are different. You can directly swap diffs between 340s and 360s.
