Only a matter of time before it finds itself in a locost.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I love the Volvo engines. Ever since I went to Sweden and saw Volvo powered locosts, I've been in love. These also the 5 cylinder B5234T producing 250bhp on its stock ECU, willing to go up to 450. Loving them sweeds!

I'm sure I read in a Sunday supp that (someone like) Hyundai are to make a 4.6l V8 powered saloon with about 260bhp and it'll retail at about £16k.

Never need to worry about second hand donors ever again.

Just ask them for a completely knocked down kit and leave out the shell/windows etc etc etc

Brand new donor for a couple of grand!
