And a follow-on question:

My local Volvo salvage yard thinks the wiring harness may differ between the eight valve and sixteen valve engines. He also said that a low mileage sixteen valve engine would be hard to find. That being said, I'm wondering if I could find a relatively low mileage eight valve engine and use the block and just reuse the sixteen valve head from the original motor. Are the blocks the same? How much of the original engine would I have to transfer to the replacement block?
