Hey all. I'm going to be replacing the head on my '96 850 R in a couple weeks and am looking for the Cam Tool set (with the crank lock pin and the spark plug clamp-y things). I've found plenty around eBay and such, but the price is quite high.

Does anyone on this board (maybe around Chicago) have these tools? Are you willing to loan/rent them out to a fellow Bricker?


For the curious - the '96 R suffered an overheat thanks to a blown coolant expansion tank. The car is new to me as of Feb and is in fantastic shape and ran beautifully. When I got it, I replaced all the engine seals and PCV system and timing belt kit, etc., and said, "well, now I won't have anything big to do for another 70k miles!" I'm getting a medium-worked head from R-Sport International and am pretty excited about it.

Any advice on the replacement job is much appreciated. I'll have my uncle (30yr mechanic) helping me, but he's not a Volvo Guy...

Thanks, in advance!
