Volvo is not necessarily known for it’s racing heritage or modding community, but it has a big presence in both! Volvo 240’s dominated the racing scene back in the day, from there people started modding their plain jane looking Volvo 240’s into track and street racing ready weapons. But the best part about modding a Volvo 240 is that the exterior looks like an assuming brick, this, in turn, makes them great platforms for sleepers … and this one is pretty insane!

you should search up kevin brunberg on youtube, he runs a b230 with the 8v head. come back and thell me that aint a badass inline 4 engine. i have a b230ft build myself going, my plan is somewhere between 300-400whp on a 30 year old engine.

[@hagglundguy]

@@Alphieboy 300hp should be fairly easy with forged pistons and conrods. Don't forget also stiffer valve springs to keep em' closed, after that it's just fueling and installing a large enough turbo and intercooler

[@Alphieboy]

@@hagglundguy yep, i recently finished building my 531 top, and it should be good for somewhere between 700-800hp with a different cam. I ported both the intake and exhaust 10mm larger, stiffer valve springs, bigger valves stage 2 turbo camshaft and perfected gapping below thr camshaft. I also have a Volvo V70R Turbo loading 1.2 bar og boost, but for now on stock internals

[@hagglundguy]

@@Alphieboy very nice setup! What kind of mods are you looking to do to the bottom end? My dream would be a mad 3 liter stroked 7000 rpm screaming bottom end

[@Alphieboy]

@@hagglundguy the plan is to go full forged yoshifab internals. i might be swapping out the block with a new one, or stroke it from 2.4L to 2.4, since the previous owner did not take good care of it, and the cyl walls are a bit worn. the whole project is a long time project since building a car usually aint cheap.

[@jerrylindgren7828]

I have had 8 240's, spent $1000 total for the last 4 of them. One of the best things about them for the Volvo cult has been affordability and mechanical simplicity. They changed very few things in the 19 years they were produced making parts very interchangeable. Videos like this drive the price up, but can't say I mind because the more of these that get saved from junkyards the better. Probably selling one soon so thanks Donut for helping hype these beautiful bricks. :)
