240 General: The new Volvo 240 to the household

Fair enough, i missed out on a NOS set on Gumtree for £25 by 5 minutes, i don't think the seller realized what he had.

Yeah could well be interested in those struts.

Well it's been far to long since my last update .

Not much has changed apart from now a few major engine build decisions .
Before I was going to run just a standard but rebuilt bottom end . Well that's now out the window and it's now having a fully forged bottom end . Got a great service from the guys at rsi international in the us on the Pistons and Rods and a few other parts.

So she will now be fully forged bottom end b230fk with my 16v head that had solid lifter conversion and some aggressive cams being made and various other bits played with .

But the cars going backwards before forwards as everything's comming off getting powder coated and subframes the works . So making more work for myself 😂😂

Been a long time since I’ve had any movement on this other commitments got in the way etc so she’s been stored away. But will be getting back to it has anyone done a bmw zf gearbox conversion on the redblock I’ve seen it’s been done but no info on flywheel and clutch setup etc I have the box from annother project and a m90 for the bell-housing just. And Info on clutch and flywheel would be greatly appreciated to save me the time a digging around

Thanks
