jamesinc I don't suppose anyone has some new freeze plugs on the shelf? I forgot to order them for my rebuild ?Volvo part #463904, they are the flat kind (rather than the cup kind you see on some B230s)
jamesinc Sooner the better I suppose as I'd like to get the block painted as quickly as possible, but having said that I guess any time in the next week or so is fine.
jamesinc Roinik Paint the block and make them a feature like B20 and B30 engines?I've done that in the past, but these ones are usually steel so they start to get surface rust. If I was going to make them a feature I think I'd rather paint them silver
jamesinc Works for me, you're not far from me I don't think, Hills District area? Happy to drive over
