Exclamation B18FT for engine conversion 440/460/480Turbo

Hi all im after a B18ft (Manual) Lump to do an engine swap
thought the best place to ask is on a Volvo forum


I need
Engine with all its ancillaries - or the ones enough to make it run (fuel rail injectors temp senders MAF)
turbo & turbo downpipe
Engine mounts
The 2 Ecus (engine and fuel ecu)
The loom
fuel pump and regulator - if its got one

preferably a low millage engine with a history
im based in north devon but am prepared to travel for the right item

or a car that i can strip for all the bits i need .

i have found a contact willing to let me have a loom, ecu's ,and maf. if that opens up more options

Please email me on
pete.cort@btinternet.com
or PM me here
Many thanks in advance
Pete

Is it to go in a Volvo or a Renault 5? Always wondered what a b18ft powered 5 would be like. It would also be worth asking the Volvo 480 forum (not sure what it is called)

Yeh it's for a R5 gt turbo Raider
It's such an easy swap even the engine mounts are the same !
Hence why I'm going to do it
Electrics are a bit of a challenge but nothing out of the ordinary

Still looking ..…
