All 1.7s were 340s. I take it you want to do the renault 16v engine swap?

1.4 and 1.7 are 340's. both Renault engined.
360 is a 2.0. Volvo engined mate.

Nicer to drive than a sierra in my considered opinion. CVHs are better on fuel than 300s, and sierras are a bit more plush and modern feeling. But the steering of a 340 is much more communicative and they're lighter too.

and the 300s are so much cheaper to insure for me anyways, 2.5k for the sierra oe 347 pound for a 300 tbh im glad the insurance was to high on the sierra cos it got me looking at 300's
