Woho, here it is then!
My new project thread! =)

My new car is a piggy pink Volvo 740 GL manufactured year 1987, with the B230F engine.

Plans with the car: Have fun and go sideways in roundabouts.

Upgrades:
Do something fun with the interior, it's crap.
Will put a turbo engine in later on, now I'll settle with some mods on the head, larger injectors and some minor tune-ups like other cam and so on =)

hahaha you remind me soo much of myself! I do the very same things, except my wife has a lot to say about it :)

Just out of interest, what make is that spanner in the top picture? It looks like a set of Stahlwille ones i have and love! I know that was a random question.

Going to put on the cylinder head this weekend without porting or another cam.
Will settle with another cam later on, just want to get it up and running to see what I have to sort out next.

Also I've been doing some interior cleaning :)
