Guys From time to time I ask if someone might have a 242GT boot badge, 1980 version that is surplus to requirements. A GT I'm rebuilding didn't come with one. ...

Does anyone out there have the Volvo Cruise Control, approx 1980 onwards, pick up on the rear of the speedo (which is the original Volvo factory set up). I...
Hi Ralph, One of our Volvos is a 1982 244GLE with cruise that works, but Kyabram is probably too far!! I had to try a couple of control units before I got it...
Nightmare, as head is not crossflow, therefore superhot exh is sitting below inlet manifold, then you have the hideous steering shaft, brakes, all in the way,...
Cheers Anthony was thinking that. How about supercharging? What is involved in a b23 or similar swap using m46? Will a b230ft fit? I have the car in pieces...
if you want to suprcharge look up vintage performance developments. You do need to make a 90deg turn adapter for the weber as his kit is for LHD and the RHD...
Thanks, am giving some thought to usin an sc14 supercharger of toyota origns good for up to 19psi and should be relatively easy to fit to b20e setup given...
Its definitely possible. There's a rough yellow 142 getting around Canberra with a LPG + turbo set-up that supposedly goes very well, and there are some crazy...

i think you meant a b20a head on a stock b20 bottom end right??? b20e head is 10.5:1 which might not help with boost. also a cam suitable for turbo/blower is a...
Agreed on the head/CR stuff. Stock crank is no problem, at virtually "any" power level. Stock rods will last if the engine is built right. I have read some...
Ah now am confused! Was my understanding the heads were all the same give or take and compression was different by means of head gasket and pistons? Reason...
all bottom ends are same bore stroke and deck height except for cam which you would fit with a new A cam anyway rather than use an old worn out one. The E-head...
I am doubtful about the claims that 6-bolt cranks shear flywheel bolts. Sure, the 8-bolt versions must be stronger, but the torque handling capability of six...
Well fitting ARP crank bolts is what is suggested to prevent crank bolts from shearing. Apparently the stock ones go at 200hp and up......allegedly........
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a custom exhaust in the Mornington Peninsula area? The 240 has desperate need and I'm thinking slightly...
I have not ever heard of flywheel bolt problems BUT if a problem did ocurr, I would be examining the mounting surfaces/installation before I convicted the...
Weeeell, i think a lot of this conversation is based on things we've heard and the old "collective wisdom". I;ve never had an issue but then i never had a b20...
