I'm going to go with an early I don't think it will.

You'd have to check and see what block it uses and do some measuring... but I think from memory laguna's used a different setup.

AFAIK all the williams engines were 2 litres, the 1.8s are just valvers. could be wrong though. You don't need the gearbox.

A list of stuff needed can be found here: http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/v ... 13&t=11630 :D
