Sell your car and buy a turbo model car.

Honestly that is the best way to go.

There's also a place in Maine that sells kits to drop Ford 302 and Mustang 5.0's into a 1975+ rear-wheel drive Volvo. I guess they sell the kits or they will do the work for you.

Converse Engineering


Here's an '89 740 they dropped a Mustang 5.0l H.O. engine into:

You have to call them to order the kit as I guess they want to make sure that you have everything you need for the conversion. They are the only place that *I* know of, I'm sure there are places in Cali, but since I'm on the East coast, I tend to look in this area.
