Volvo 700-Series V8 Conversion posted by Mark Toljagic on

Hello Everyone,

Got a question on behalf of my brother, who owns a 760 Turbo with a blown engine. We had read somewhere that Paul Newman is driving around in a 700- or 900-series station wagon with a V8 (Ford or Chevy) tucked under the hood. I checked the JTR website and they don't even have the book ready yet. So who's doing this kind of custom work? And where can we get the mounts, etc.? Don't tell me about the 200-series stuff. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Mark.
