Fin-Solo Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 My dad just replaced his tailpipes on his mustang, and I got one of the pipes. Finally able to finish my muffler delete with STYLE. It doesn't stick out either, sits a tad bit in from the bumper, looks perfect. Edit- I always fail with pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volvo5.0 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 V8's Are Cool Just Wish I had one...... If you like V8's and you like Volvo's YOU need this..... The tailpipe looks SWEET on your 240 BTW :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 A guy near me "specializes" in Ford 302 (5.0) conversions on Volvos..He's done 240s, Bertones, last time I was there he had a p1800 in the works..had an old 162 as well (i guess that would make it a 182!) too. always did manual trans. too..(didn't do the typical 350/350 auto conversions that so many people do). He's a Volvo collector and restorer too, not just a custom guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Riker Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Currently helping a friend in his turbo V8 build for his 242. It's going to be quite the bee knees. http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?p=3566534#post3566534 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagoneer855 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Currently helping a friend in his turbo V8 build for his 242. It's going to be quite the bee knees. Single turbo? There's a 5.0 244 that always comes out to the local meets. Totally awesome with NO exterior mods, both tailpipes are hidden under the bumper with turn downs, really quiet exhaust. If I were to ever do a V8 RWD conversion I do it sleeper style just like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnloves850's Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I think the coolest v8 swap would be the B8444 or whatever it is that Volvo made :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johann Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I think the coolest v8 swap would be the B8444 or whatever it is that Volvo made Downside of that engine is that there isn't a gearbox which fits 1:1 except for the FWD based AWD AT as used in the XC90 and S80. Afaik there isn't a company making bell housings for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
