Klaus, your comments are so helpful, man. The shop I'm working with contacted Volvo apparently last week, but we are waiting for a reply. Personally I am ready to have the head put on and roll with what comes but I am not with the wrench in my hand.

Apparently there is a question as to the turbo, whether they both match up.

I wonder if anyone here can tell, with the right info?

VIN YV1LZ56D1X2541156 1999 V70 XC (the receiving)
VIN JA3AU26U98U014478 1998 S70 GLT (the donor)

Question being, any information available that the turbo will match when the '98 head is donated to the '99 engine which has blown a valve?

The young man working the service desk at the really cool shop needs some authoritative word to proceed on our collective hunch that it will work. The call was put to Volvo last Wed or Thurs....
