" Hi all

greatlakesxj.com/tech.html has xj parts and svc manuals for d/l,
including the '94.  there'll be sections on the aw4.

very interesting read!  one nit - wagoneerlover says the 360 is
neutral balanced, but that's backwards; the 4.0 [like all inlines] is
neutral, the 360 is externally balanced.  the need to rebalance the
flexplate remains though.

briefly in the mid '90s, the supra had a 5sp 'a350'; i can't find any
other app for it.  it may or may not be related to the a340.  it may
or may not be junk.  it was used behind a smallish engine in a
lightish car.  i've wondered if it'd be an easy swap for the a340/aw4
ever since i learned about it; the later a750 5sp is almost certainly
completely different.

"    Not much help I know. Oh yeah, Toyota used the same trans with some beefing up in supras/trucks,etc;  try the Toyota guys if you want. See if they can be of more help. 

they called it the a340; beefiest stock version i know of was the
early-'00s 4.7 tundra a343.
