hi all again,
was power assisted steering fitted in all 340 1.4 models after a certain year or is it just specific models?, 1989 is the year of the car so hoping it is fitted for tht model/year
cheers

Sorry to put a downer on things, but no 340's were fitted with PAS from factory, it is possible on a conversion!!

Why not use the 400 pas pump and pully. There are loads dumped on steet corners and scrap yards

The 400 lump will have PAS Dai plan is to get as much on the car and working so that when i have a week of college etc everything can be dropped in!! Thats why i would likle PAS on the 1.4 then it will be an easier conversion!!!

when a 1.7 turbo is slammed in from a 440, the PAS column can also be bolted on? meaning a 440 PAS 340?
this is just gettin better and better!!

Not exactly no, to do the conversion you need the PAS setup from a 360 and then just the pump from the 440 turbo lump to give the car PAS!!

tyre pressures will make more of a difference to steering than you can believe.. pump em up a little high..
