Hi
has anyone ever changed the head on there b230 to 16 valves from a b234 I was told by a volvo mech that its possible and I would be better off doing this than to convert to turbo. I have a b230 with regina bendix and i just replaced the crank and knock sensor could I reuse them if I swap heads. would it make a big difference in performance. how would the electronic work would i use the same ECU and ignition
thanks in advance

I also want to put a electric fan from the junk yard and remove the mechanical fan how would that be wired ( 850 or any front wheel drive fan)
thanks
