The IBM Don Mills plant in Toronto built model 20s. I knew guys who

accumulated a lot of engineering changes that had not been cut into
production, so they would be assembled and then there where teams that
would apply the engineering changes before the systems where shipped.

What model of a 360? 8K
sounds a lot like a Model 20, which the purists

I had not realized the IBM 360 was 60 yrs. old
this month. I worked on
such
a computer in the late 60s in Toronto. What one could do with 8 Kbytes of
ram was remarkable!
Happy computing
Murray 🙂
