Don't mean to wee on anyone's fire, but you'll need from a 360:
Bellhousing,
Propshaft,
Engine mounts,
Torque tube,
Gearbox.

It'll be a massive job owing to the 340/360 having different drivelines, but Foggyjames managed it so it can indeed be done.

Including the gearbox itself, which is a different casting.
