Yeah, those Volvo motors can make mean power if you can get past the ECM on the later models. A good friend had a red 850R Wagon, it was mean, but it was an inline 5.
The shame about the volvo is that there's truly no good chasis that you can put the high HP engines in.
But agreed. It is pretty. I like mine better:

Oh, and the 240 Chassis might look ungainly, it is, but i know of a guy in England with a 240 Rally Car, same engine, pushing 350 Horse and he runs a 13.5 up around 3000 Feet. Im gonna work on the engine over winter and pimpify it, i want to push around 18 psi which is about the limit you can push on stock internals on the B234FT. 20 is max i think, but ill be happy with 18 :) Theres also a TT Manifold made in Sweden for this block, cost to get it here to my door will cost me around 1500 bucks :( might have to wait awhile for that

that motor looks phat but like Bedlam said, what good is it in a 6 ton car? Jus Kiddin Paul, but good luck with the swap if you do it. BTW, that motor does look good for a VOLVO motor.:D

That engine is gonna make your car a sleeper, another thing if you want your engine to look like that talk to alex, he does a very good job of taking debris out of your engine bay. He took about 2 years of oil and dirt off my car in 15 mins. So when are you buying the engine?

Tobi, that dancing Spyderman has to go, he looks so unbelievably gay.
Would he need to make it more gay for you to believe just how gay it really is?

hehe and they didn't have to park next to a pole to do it :D but bedlam is right, 6 tons and some power still doesn't help all that much

So are you guys saying that the Bently Arnage T is not a cool car. It goes 0-60 in about 5 sec. At first I was like;gay; but then I saw that it weighs 5000lbs!!! I think it is cool when you make a heavy car fast. It is very impressive.

Thats whats so funny about it. You know, Spiderman, the gay superhero. Runs around it tights all day and doesnt have time for a girlfriend. Superman is much buiser and still has time for Lois Lane right? Sounds fishy to me.

It really is a lot of fun... You should see the faces of the "sports car" drivers when a Swedish safetymobile leaves them in the dust.
Can't wait for the S60R to come out in the Spring... Finally give the S4 some competition
