Howdy fellow 360 AC's,
It looks like it's been several years since anyone has responded to this post, so I'm hoping someone is watching. I have an '87 360AC and have several questions ya'll may be able to answer. I am looking to repair the twin trumpet air horns. The compressor works; however, the little button inside the diaphragm is destroyed. Any insight is appreciated. I'm also about to start rebedding the deck hardware to attempt to eliminate some leaks that have destroyed the interior material in the aft area. Any insight into issues I may encounter, i.e. the cleat bolts spinning and I have to cut into the bulk head to get a wrench on them?
 
Hello Flabby,
My '83 355AC had a Hadley horn which does not sound like the one you describe.

Specific to rebedding the deck hardware, I was able to remove various panels to access the backer nuts for most of the railing and cleats. Took a little bit of searching to get this done.
 
Hi Jeff,
I seriously appreciate your response concerning the deck hardware. Definitely confirms my fears. Guess I'll start looking for the access areas to them.

I'll most likely have to replace the entire horn system.
 
Okay, it's an old thread but I'll keep it alive. 1982 SR355AC Just purchased the boat earlier this year and are having a great time just going thru her and getting her back into shape. Look forward to hearing from any other or future SR355 or SR360 owners.

I also own a 1984 360 aft cabin model. I paid only $9k for it in 2014 but it needed work. The motors are in good shape though.. I just had a problem with sea water getting into the oil pan but I think I have a bad oil cooler to replace.. I am trying to get it restored or remodeled inside.. I have twine 7.4 454 Mercruisers. I need to find service manuals for the motors and the boat.. I did down load the old manuals they have on the Sea Ray site but I need more manuals for all the systems.. If anyone knows where I could find service manuals for the engines and anything else for this model please reply and let me know.. I will pay for them or pay for copies as long as they afre the correct manuals. ..
