Having signed up at a few volvo boards, I have to say that this one has been the best so far in terms of what I could find answers to in the archives and the likes.

Hopefully, someone can now chime in with recommendations for the following situation.

Having bought a 98 v90 in immaculate condition for a cheap price, because of a blown headgasket, I was hoping to get some recommendations as to what service (preventative, etc) could be done to the engine while its stripped down.

So far I have the following in mind.

new Headgasket (of course)
head to a machine shop for inspection, cleaning, and reconditioning
timing belt
water pump
serpentine belt

Beyond that, what else could I do to make sure that the volvo with 150K miles on the clock is good for another 100K.

thanks in advance
