Thanks for all the details! Very impressive... It's not a 360
GLT anymore, it's a real beast!
I'm waiting for the pictures or the VIDEOS! It's a good opportunity to test your brand new TV
card!

i can not take praise-the praise goes to the people who did
the work. volvo car bv helmond netherlands and cumbrian uk dealer built shell and engine and
HÖR built transmission.i know every nut and bolt on it though .
it really wants a lick of paint,orange maybe!
transmission is not too reliable,but engine and shell are mint.

What modifications do you have to do in order to fit te carlton
discs and the 240 4pot calipers?
