This is the info for v70 302mm brake swap.....16s req'd.

http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=157001

Its all helpful :)

All we get is basic knock sensor that alters ignition and fuel cut when maf is maxed.
Thats where 012 maf comes in and moves the maf linearity scale upwards allowing more flow....

Dont think the 940 had tcv system ??

Had a 300 mile round trip at the weekend......all went well.
lh2.4 seems to have learnt to new injectors.

Time to have some fun. :)

Gradually upped the boost......this is where this got...

Bit of an update with inclusion of ongoing mods.

Engine work :
All legal now but only managed 30 or so miles so far. Boost is set at 10psi currently, presume its the swap from T cam but it comes...

Cheers for the comments guys :)

Well got the car back from mot.........

Can you believe I got an advisory: number plate deteriorated but not likely to be misread.

What a relief that...

New walbro 255 fuel pump fitted, in tank fuel line......what a bugger of a job getting sender unit back into tank.
Fuel filter changed.

Volvo 760 proper 2x single din centre console purchased.
...

oh yeah cause its easy as that.lol

How about this Idea....... ??

remove heater controls and put...

The radio slot in 940 is weird 1.5 din thing.

wanting to make better use of this area.....possibly...

No mate stock 016.....easier to alter chip for fuel cut then under fueling with 3" maf cause injectors arent big enough for it.

Nearly ready for mot.......been using a private road at back of house to run the 940 up and down.

I didnt know if the 350cc injectors would make the car run rich and fail emmisions so tried to...

Then stop wining about economy.lol

As with everything in life good looks come at a price.
Cheap and easy has its advantages :)

Yay.... dont forget to keep us updated.

I for one would love to see your progress

Still starts fine, idles well.
I have run through idle set up and tps as I'd had all the linkages off.
Heaters blowing hot air and system seems to have bled itself.

Also theres no dancing oil...

Tonights update......

YAY......new bpr7s fitted doubled checked everything and the old girl struck up straight away.
settled down quickly to a nice steady idle.

Only ran for a few minutes got...

Heres an example of xdf :

The 4.4 stuff for 850s got me interested in tuning the ecu, know theres chips available but thought I'd look into it for lh2.4 as in the 940.

Heres a link explaining the basics plus advances in...

740s have more status than the 940s, getting more modern ckassic.
940s are just cheap tunable rwd cars.

Motronic crap in 740s not very adaptable......best combo would be late 940 squirter block...

its a swede and proud!!!!!

What do you guys think to this.......took me a few attempts but I'm happy.
Just need to do a few finishing touches.
...

Should get all that done in a weekend.lol

Cheers guys :)

Filled up with fluids now, turned over without coil connected and couldnt see any leaks or strange noises.

Fingers crossed......

Once running will be straight into 3"exhaust,...

^^^ this , more cam overlap less vacuum,

Would less vacuum have any effect on vacuum for brake booster or throttle response? ???
No idea just asking.

First off big thanks to m-r-p and jamesy12345 for allowing me to use them as guinea pigs and put up with my endless messages.
Also to jks for his outstanding technical knowledge......big thumbs up...

Got the new radiator fitted but found in final fitment the npr intercooler just fouled the top of the airbox.

Mmmmm....bugger.

Again probably totally worthless but my way round it was to modify...

Time for more updates: these are grouped into topics rather than in work carried out so pics may jump around a bit.

I did my usual research before carrying out any work and all info is sourced...
