Not yet, but please keep me/us updated with any news. I will be doing my B20B, which involves a bit more work, but first will pull the engine and replace seals and stuff, but first get an engine lift and stand...

So is your B30 carbed, D-jet, or K-jet? D-jet would be the simplest to change over, already having the electronic injectors. You can also fit other Bosch injectors in place of the original hard to find/expensive ones, keeping in mind that the d-jet used a low fuel pressure (thus only cheap hose clamps needed).

If you need any electronic advice, just ask. I am an electronic engineer at one of the top 10 exporting manufacturers in New Zealand.

By the way, in the mid 80's there was a Holden and Nissan (or Mitsubishi?) that used an engine with injectors virtually identical to Volvo D-jet. Different Bosch part numbers, but interchangeable and a lot cheaper being a Japanese engine. Think it was an RB30 engine or something, maybe RB28. Much easier to find in a good condition or even new!
