498196 was weird in a lot of ways. As I mentioned it was identified as a B20A in my Motortypen
file. ONE Zenith Stromberg carb. The bare block was lying in someone's back yard.
I do know that Maquinarias y Equipos Romero SA gave up on FI maintenance and was importing
carbureted Volvos well into the B21 years. All of them that I saw had ONE carb.
This block has M12-1.75 threads on both the rodcaps and bellhousing mount, otherwise Unified
threads like earlier blocks.
It does not show any signs of being a marine engine, and was found for me by a mechanic who
USED to work for M&ERSA. I think I paid $200 for it. (I was desperate at the time.)
