Default B234 For Sale

I'm accepting that this project is not going to happen. I got this (at least) 2 years ago from Chesh and it has been sitting in our warehouse under cover ever since. It deserves someone who will do something with it.

Its in good condition. I'm sure Chesh knows more about it than I do.

I will sell it for what I paid him for it, £400 (if I remember correctly). I can arrange shipping to the UK for about £85 for the pallet. Let me know if your interested.

To help you with the sale. Heres the history as i remember of it and some pics.

The 940 it was fitted to has done 122k, but at 77k it went in for its service at the volvo dealers for no doubt the cambelt change service and no less than 80miles later it was back to have a brand new engine fitted, me thinks the volvo dealer cocked up!!!!

So they fitted a new longblock, which is new cylinder block and cylinder head. I would imagine this cost somewhere in the region of over £2000, i know a B230ET 8v longblock cost £1600 from the dealers.

It it the late b234f with the auto tensioner as you would expect from a factory engine, it runs very sweet, the owner i bought it off changed the oil n filter every 5k.

I removed the cambelt cover to inspect the belts just to make sure they werent on the verge of snapping

I also have another 16v head as well. Good condition but a small crack in the rocker cover (shipping damage). would be easily repaired. I'll post some pictures.
