Kind of ticks me off Volvo never produced an OHC (over head cam) inline six engine. You know. B20 is to B21 as B30 is to B32?

B21 & B23 are rubbish compared to a B20. How can you change the head to alloy, eliminate half the valvetrain & end up with a HEAVIER engine? In the cylinder head, they pretty much duplicated the B20's bad exhaust port for both sides & you get very poor power output.
