Nice Bertone color tie-in
- B23 block, now B25 ?
- Wiseco 96,50mm pistons
- crankshaft engineered and polished to a 85mm stroke
- 152mm H beam connecting rods
- B234F 16V head with GLT cams and stiffer valve springs
- Delphi 998cc injectors in plenum manifold
- exhaust manifold from KL Racing- Garrett GT35R turbo

My friend (who writes here too sometimes, thank you JuhaU !) assembled the engine for me, he also engineered the "potholes" to the pistons!

Hmmm…not sure how I feel about this. What shape did it start out in?

Those rims really work with this car. I've always thought the old Volvos' block-like shape was acerbated by the dinky factory rims.

The wheels are custom and awesome too.
These 17" wheels are Peugeot 407 steel wheels, flipped and widened to 9˝" rear and 8˝" front. I purchased Falken FK452 tires for them, 235/45-17 rear and 215/45-17 front.Wheels have now specially made centric rings, not for the wheels but for the Volvo original hub caps.

I got down to pic three, and in my head I started chanting... "please dont go ghetto, please dont go ghetto..." Nope, no ghetto present. I always had a soft spot for the Bertones

I love 'em too, but the details have always bothered me.
There are some people who prefer the pre-'86 looks, but I'm not one of them. Just too jagged.
This car is a dream.
