Looks good to me….do we have a deal?



One thing to consider..I understand from a good friend of mine and a very experienced mechanic…..and the long term owner of several big Volvo's, that the early V6 volvo's had a weakness in the oil supply to the cam shafts causing occasional failure. Its his old ( good) engine that will form the basis of my eventual re-build of Frenchy's old engine. Just a thought.

Only applies to early 2664cc engines.

Thats worth knowing Martin…what percentage were that engine size, any idea?

Not many - limited to early Renault 30 and Volvo 26x.

FWIW I have a fairly decent stock of engine blocks. Some still fully assembled engines, others bare. All from cars with waterproof engine lids so corrosion is minimal, and all fully interchangable with stock DeLorean
