Paul,

I can say, with almost 100% assurance, that volvoworld is incorrect on that one.

Two reasons. First, I owned one (and may still, I left it with a friend in Calif.)
It was a '67 122S, VID Type # 133xxxx, and it was not a 123 GT.
I run the engine from that car in my current '67 Amazon.

Second, brickboarder Phil Singher recently confirmed the B18B factory option, for both the '67 and '68 130 model, in another thread on the Yahoo 1800list.

Phil, you out there? What source did you use when you confirmed that the high compression B18B was offered as a factory option on both the '67 and '68 or 130's?

I'm sure it was limited to the "130" or 2-door model, which would explain the B18B engines being shown in the "130" VEHICLE_CHASSIS_PRODUCTION table, but not in the "120" table.

gary - '67 122S, '72 ES
