Lookie, cheap engine conversion?

[T.J.]

oh don't worry, I'm not "down" , just wanted to find out.. so where would I find the engine code?

[Speedy88]

Good luck with that, they're under the intake manifold close to the dipstick where it enters the engine. It's a plate, not the stamped letters in the block.

thats not a williams dude.
its an f7p in williams blue.

nice spot though.

/Joins in.

That's not Williams blue. I'd say that's (iirc) Monaco blue.

Nice spot though.

I disagree The 16v's were in Monaco blue which is very similar to the Williams blue. I only know this cos a 'valva' was one of my mates first cars, and aside from constant mechanical woes we had to paint a few bits.

I am pleased that you wrote coloUr however.

I'm waiting for Chris to come along now and dash all my facts with his beard.

I've a good one going again atm

1.8's are more rev'y 2.0's are more torquey.

Either way, if you have the correct number of cam's you'll have a very nice car.

Well I gave up looking for the plate cos it's way too hard to see. Instead, I used this forum from der fatherland

I has the f7p engine. Problem solved.

[Speedy88]

Cool, thanks for posting that actually. Always wondered if there were visual differences.

Brand new, does not cost too much and with such one can get insane MPG.

Sam originally bought a grey 5 door with the F7P in and then after an incident he changed all of the parts over to the red 3 door shell and nearly finished the project and this is when it was sold to T.J. - so he now has a 3 door which is the re-incarnation of the grey 5 door if that makes sense?

It is all in this thread here: http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/v ... hp?t=10845
