    Not done a lot since last post, as we ve needed to wait for our brand new OEM front panels to arrive, we couldnt line our front end up as our panels were turd, so we waited, and waited, and waited, supposed to be end of september, october, november, december, it ll be new year, and february they turned up, so we will do some more on her.







    Also our 960 motor is back, we need to make an adapter to fit our M3 EVO transmission
    Also you can see our clutch, which is ok for 1000 hp
    We aim for 800 hp

    We basically downed tools and left it, as no panels meant we couldn t complete it so we ve been at work on our many projects,

    We wanted to complete rear end so made a re start on it,




    Drilled ready to spot weld




    Welded in

    No plans on paper at all, just a tape measure, welder, grinder .

    We take each problem as it comes, sometimes you need to go backward 2 steps to move forward 3 ?

    A few more pictures, we made our motor mounts .







    Quick buzz over to make it look nice









    Opposite side, it looks close but it isnt.


    Told you.


    Next job is to finish bulkhead, mount front bumper and finish front cross member.

    Does anyone know the part number by any luck, for my 1996 volvo 96O crankshaft ?

    Its a 2.9L 24v whiteblock

    My local volvo dealer said "we dont give part numbers out"

    I need it to find the spec of the splines, as i need to make a crank for my motor, and a part number will save some coin
