Hey mate would you possibly just consider selling the turbo and manifold with the oil supply lines? if you dont is it a B230 head or a B23? Also what version are the computers? cheers
90gabe
Hi Will, I'll probably wait and see what happens, obviously i'd rather sell it all as one kit that way I don't get stuck with anything but we'll see what happens. Its a B230 head and computers are out of a 940 turbo.
Barwick10
are you free tomorrow at some time for a chat? im keen to find out a bit more. Cheers.

No, Will.... noooooooo :)
Barwick10
but i have two cars. the 740 could use a new head...
A_Volvo_Driver
you don't want this, until I am out of the race LOL
Barwick10
but that also helps me a great deal. all the more reason to buy it ;)

Scott. In all seriousness. I can help with the hard parts side of things.

Also the 940 style intercooler you show is a lot wider and may cause issues in a 240 engine bay. The head isn't strictly needed but the manifolds are good and the computers are lh 2.4 if 940 so if you have a kjet car its still a lot of wiring work.

Yeah, Angus said the same thing about the wiring :(
A_Volvo_Driver
Wiring work aside, I'm told that the crank sensor on a LH2.4 setup would require modification to the block (as opposed to LH 2.2 which is in the distributor)?
So, it sounds like I'm after 740T bits, not 940T bits.
Chaps, does that sound correct? I'm really keen on the kit, but not if the block needs to be modified.

The wiring is fairly easy. You just have to source the engine wiring harness from an LH-2.4 240. I got one sent over from the US for about $150 shipped.
Basically you just throw out the 940's engine bay harness and install the harness from a 240. It's a standalone harness, not integrated with other 240 wiring, so you just install it then bung it through the firewall in one of the spare holes. To get it running you then have to pin the fuel pump relay and a couple of wires to the cluster and A/C.
If you're putting it into a 240, then it's super easy, but you need to find an electronic cluster and tone wheel diff.
The hard part, alluded to above, is doing the crank position sensor. You'll need the sensor and mounting bracket (both still available from Volvo). The block should be tapped already if it's a B230, and then you'll need to get an angle grinder out and cut a hole in the bellhousing for the sensor to sit in. You'll also need an LH-2.4 flywheel or flexplate.

Cheers, James. @Angus242164 told me that the crank sensor is different on the 940, and requires modification to the block as well as a different flywheel and clutch. If this is simply bolt-on, I'm all for it, but am not wanting to spend the bucks required to modify the block to mount the sensor.
jamesinc
Umm not to my knowledge, but I don't claim to be any kind of authority on crank position sensors on redblocks.
If it's a B230 block, I think it will have the necessary holes (possibly depending on year of manufacture, but they were there on my '89 B230F). If it's a B23 it might not have them as that redblock iteration predates LH-2.4 by several years.
A_Volvo_Driver
Yeah Angus said that a LH2.2 setup will bolt on as the sensor in question is in the distrubutor, not the block, like on a LH 2.4.
Im just wanting to confirm this all, before deciding to buy, or pass on this :)

If it helps Scott I have a couple of elec clusters, a later diff, m47 flywheel and auto flex plate, probably have the right bell housing and CPSs.
Unfortunately I sold my engine harness for another turbo build.
jamesinc
Yes Angus is right, if you go from K-Jet to LH-2.2 it's easy in that respect. Going to 2.4 will require you to remove the motor and gearbox. I personally think LH-2.4 is about a bazillion times better but plenty of guys +T on 2.2 and have it running pretty well, e.g. @Slowbrick
Philia_Bear
All b230 block can take the lh2.4 sensor out the ass end
Angus242164
Scott has a B23 block, so it doesn't have the holes for the sensor bracket.
He also has an M45 that originally came from a '78, with 10 spline input shaft, so if he fits a later LH 2.4 flywheel and clutch, the later 9" 22 spline clutch disc won't fit his gearbox, and his current 8.5" 10 spline clutch disc won't fit the later flywheel.
If it was me doing the conversion, I'd get hold of a set of 740T LH 2.2 ECU's, and an '86-'88 240 dizzy, and avoid pulling the gearbox out again entirely.
I'm curious about the oil drain hose from the turbo, is it designed to work with the stock drain hole on a turbo block, or a fitting welded into the sump?
