Volvo 360 gle turbo options

yeah man, same block/engine family as the turbo 240, 740, some 940, factory  exhaust manifolds will fit etc but put the turbo in a yuck place. need to drill oil drain etc. rods are weaker than the 2.3 engines AFAIK.

 

Easiest would be to get a whole 2.3 out of another car and swap it over. either run a megasquirt etc or get an LH2.4 out of a later car and wire that all in.

 

Check out http://www.volvo300mania.com/uk/forum/ they will have all the info you want, quite a common swap over there

 

Read all about it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_B21_engine

 

Volvo stuck a hairdryer on the 360 GLT in the mid-80s, afaik the same bits as all their other 2-litre turbos. :tongue:

 

This is wrong, GLT was never turbo, no factory turbo in the 360 series

#cough# 2.3 turbo 360 almost finished #cough# building the engine, flywheels waiting in aus, custom mounts coming in from England, wiring is half done already, turbo is a 13g. At Op, didn't get it off a guy named will did you? He seems to have gotten rid of his volvo and gotten a hillman
