Re: improvements of the 88+ v6 700 1990

Yepper.

Details escape me, but the B230FT was at the least an option on the US 760's. The sketchy reliability of the B27/28 design hurt sales, so the B230FT came into the picture.

Again this is in the US. At some point the engine became an option or standard. I was considering purchasing a 88 760 last summer that was equipped with a B230FT.

I will look into this a bit more. BTW, I know for a fact that later 780's came with the turbo mill.
