I have tried to search this and have been reading through pages for about 5 hrs and not quite got a answer. My car is getting tired I have sold my muscle car project and want to work on my Volvo (96 855 turbo 5 spd ). It has 195000 miles on it and compression is down about 120 per cylinder uses some oil and the 15g needs a rebuild. I would like to upgrade the motor or possibly rebuild. There are 2 available locally a 2002 V70 T5 (2.3) $900 with all accessory's and 100000 Miles on it and 2006 S60R with 85000 miles on it which would be better to use ? Can you point me in the right direction to posts were these swaps have been done? Also your thoughts ideas and suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks!
