This


Got me this


93 940 n/a auto. Has oil squirters in the block and has a g80 locker rear and 4.10 ring and pinion. Engine is getting all new seals then going in my car. The diff and r&p will go in eventually as well.



All new seals, new gates racing timing belt, new timing belt tensioner, and cam plug retainer plate.

Aaaaaand for Christmas I got this, camber plates and another wheel haha. Now I have 2/4.

Nice work so far man!

[philohlean]

so digging this whole thing, can't wait to see more! Shame that you have to swap the engine, but it sounds like it is all for the better anyway . Where did you get those camber plates? I am looking into buying a set when I get coilovers for mine.

Cut front springs and mk4 gti neuspeed springs in the rear and blown shocks all around haha

Damn, looks like u've had quite a few bad episodes but what counts is that ur still at it and didn't chicken out like a lot of kids doing this stuff. Props to u fella! And the best bit?? It's a damn Volvo brick, YEAH! Tough car, tough owner, nice!

Ps...
I have an 850 sedan, 850 wagon and an S70 so, yeah, im addicted too haha!

[DaveD]

We pulled the motor out of the parts car in the rain...was quick and easy on a stock height car...




Got my motor out the next night



We cleaned up the new block and got the head decked and cleaned. Headgasket was sprayed with copper sealant so hopefully it holds for a long time.



Just have to time the motor and put the accessories and manifolds on then it goes in.

I should've done this to my 244
