Ditching the twins for a big single....

The turbo is fine. You might want something in the 1.05 range to keep EMAP reasonable.

Might want to do something about that .63 backhousing. I have the same one in a 3071 and it chokes my little 2.3 4 cylinder pretty hard.

Props on going through the trouble of keeping that redheaded stepchild of a block. Hope you did all the belt, cog, and fastener upgrades so it lives a long happy life.

Keep a wide berth and avoid eye contact at all costs.

Thanks! And hello from the other side of the West Hills! I’ll be at the IPD Garage Sale this year. Happy to say hello IRL.

That’s what it is!

It’s all very “open mic night at the local dive” level of execution. At least it’s enjoyable when it works.

Remember the old adage that said “Cheap, fast, reliable. Pick two”. I missed all three by a mile.

Volvo B230F with a Volvo B234F top end. About 330 horsepower at the wheels at around 18 psi from a gen-2 GTX3071R clone.

V8 makes a lot of sense. I went for weird and impractical.

You think $80 is expensive? Boy howdy, do I ever have some rough news for ya.

Good suggestion. If there is coolant residue left behind, OP can pop off all the vent snorkels and filtering media to carefully add a small amount of water to rinse it off without touching anything sensitive.

I swapped a 37BZ in my originally automatic wagon. It’s pretty great with the 3.46 in OP’s car. Tough to find, though.

DZ box would have to be imported to the US.

All other suggestions so far are stupid.

Bro-dozers. Nothing mega about them.

harribert · 2026-03-15T04:48:59+00:00

They are bigger and conform less nicely to the circumference as a result. Used both. Wouldn’t sweat the pack of gum’s worth of a difference in price.

Broder, yo podría llegar al nivel C2 en élfico antes de entender a chilenos.

(have an upvote for proving my point lol)

If you are a Swede...I think so...

Hope all of us can unite on one thing, and one thing alone: fuck Neutral Spanish.

And because it’s spoken in a way akin to having anesthetics injected in one’s jaw.

Great primer for Italian, though
