740 T5? V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Fred on  Fri Jul 26 15:17 CST 2002 [RELATED]

A site called MVP Volvo (http://www.mvpvolvo.com but not currenly up now for some odd reason) has some VERY cool looking Volvo project cars from that area (Oregon I believe). I've never seen Volvos modded that much in my area and some of those look very impressive. There's pics of a 5 cyl in a 740 (put in the RIGHT way no less) and V8 740s too all looking very professional. It'd be cheaper and easier to do a V8 conversion than put a 5 cyl in their and it's also cheaper and easier to build more power into a V8 than Volvos engines, any of them really in comparison. I'd do a carbed V8, not EFI.
If it wasn't for the fact that I already own a highly modded 525 HP Mustang, I'd consider a V8 740 conversion too.
