Andrew If you're really keen, and not averse to spending some moolah, have a word to these folks: http://www.dmshocks.com/ Their catalogue doesn't list Volvo...
Hey all, Any idea how many 760 Ts came to Oz? In particullar how many B23ET vs B230ET's; and how many manual's vs autos????? Looking for another one at the...
Not sure how many we got, but I do know we only got them in '84 and '85, and they sold heaps more V6 760's than the Turbo's. Maybe the Turbo was more ...
Manual 760Ts are far more common than manula 740Ts. I'd guess that Angus' assesment that 760Ts have a 50/50 split is about right. Interiors fall aprts far more...
I was reading through the FIA homologations documents for the 140 series cars, and they were actually homologated with TWO different sets of ratios in the...
Guys, I've had 2 '89 740 turbo's before. 150km, and 310km. 310 was the better car. I agree about the interiors and rattle, but comparing to a VN is a bit far...

I am obviously new so I thought I would say Hi. I am the proud owner of a manual 1987 240 with a few mods. My quest is to continue to get more from my baby,...
Hello and welcome, Try leaving a name so we don't refer to you as the '87 240 guy!!! Talk to Ash Davies about mods for a quick B230F. Where in the world are...
Hi there, welcome aboard. Your 240 sounds great and certainly a bit more spirited than a garden variety 240. How far you can go with it depends greatly on what...
Hi All, Some of you may not be aware that the Volvo Car Club (Sydney) are having a lunch run to Wollombi Pub on Sunday 7 August next leaving Wahroonga at 10.30...
Hi, I have been reading your comments about 740T v 760T with interest. I have owned a 740T since 1990 which has been one of the best Volvos I have owned. But I...
My head is about to melt - please help! I have a diff from a 1972 142. I also have a 4.56:1 crownwheel and pinion from (I believe) a P1800 to fit to that diff....
... Maybe not quite an answer, but: my USA road car is a 1990 760T with the B230FT. It has about 174,000 miles on it and it isn't too bad a unit. The only...
Bob, In Australia, the 760 name was dropped from the 4-cylinder turbo cars when the 740s appeared - they became known as 740Ts. I assume they did this so the...
Nathan, As I understand it, 1. Are the early 140 diffs different to late 140s diffs? Yes And are the early ones the same as 122 diffs? Diff centre in early 140...

I am looking for new rear springs for my 144 rally car. It seems 140, 164, 240 & 700 series can be fitted. I want approx standard ride height. Am interested in...
well the upper cup from 74 140 or 74 200 onwards bolts right in allowing you to fit any spring you want from 74 onwards. top end is flat of course ( 200 top)...
Rear Kings springs for a 700 series are ideal for 100 series, just the right amount of lowering (space down the upper spring seat with a small steel block if...
Angus, Which Wreckers would you suggest I have a look at. The Pedders 200 & 700 series sedan springs specs read like they might be worth a test. The Pedders...
Hi all, After corresponding with John Grist from the VCC NSW, it would make sense for my proposed cruise to merge with the VCC Volvo car run to Wollombi on 7...
