Eight valve NA cars used the M46 with J type OD. Turbo 740s, starting during the 1986 model year, used the P type OD. Very late turbo 700s used the P/J or J/P type overdrives. The B234 cars came with the same OD as the turbo cars. The J type is actually quite durable, and will do well in a turbo or B234 car. The weak link will be third gear in the M46.

Your 1990 240 would have been delivered with an M47, Volvo's 5 speed derived from the M46.
