Transaxle layout of VOLVO340/360 + 1.7 Turbo engine - request for information and opinion.

Hello,

Im looking for more information on Volvo 340/360 because I wonder about the use of a transaxle from the car to my low-cost project. I have a plan to take advantage of Volvo's 1.7 Turbo engine combined (lengthwise) with the rest of the drive system Volvo 340/360. In the network I found information about riding draft Volvo 340/360 1.7 Turbo, so I know for sure that it can be done. The popularity of this treatment suggests that this is not extremely difficult, but still have not found so far that the information I need.

My questions are as follows:

Which version of the search engine transmission components:

Is the bell shaft connecting the engine was the same everywhere and the 1.7 Turbo engine will fit only one particular version?

Are transmissions are all the same (for each engine version)? If not, what is different and which is best? (Easily accessible, only those from the other very hard 1.6D).

Is it possible to use the back of the board other than the original suspension of the De Dion axle. I mean the possibility to zip lip without alteration of the hubs of the other Volvo models.

So many questions I have to start with, I would be very grateful for the response, as long as the subject is in its infancy but I hope they manage to develop it faster with your help.

Regards and sorry for my English,

Corek
