I found a website that sells used turbos for my 1988 740, the current one is cracked and siezed. The exh. manifold is also slightly cracked. I've looked everywhere, local junk yards, pick and pulls, online, I even tried mugging some old lady and stealing hers (j/k).


Does anyone know where on earth I can find an exhaust manifold for a 1988 volvo 740 turbo with the garrett turbo?

Like I said, I can find the turbo, but the manifold is hiding somewhere and I can't find it. I even went outside and yelled "Marco" a few times with no avail.


Any help at all is appreciated

Thank you

 

Ibelievethatyou can use post90's 240/740/940exhaust manifolds. I have seen these on ebay.

 

Yah there's this thing with ebay.....

Any other places that won't ask me to saw off an extremity for a manifold?

I looked at the pick and pull again and there's one there but it has a mits turbo on it, mine has the garrett. Am I correct to assume that both these turbos mount the same on the manifold? If so, I'll snag that manifold and order a rebuilt turbo from somewhere else.

Too bad about ebay I found a really good looking (looked brand new actually but that's gotta be too good to be true) garrett turbo for 70+70 shipping. WoW!

 

Not sure about garret and mitsu swap on the manifolds I have never really paid much attention to the manifolds.
Haven't had to do that many turbo's. Most of our customers take care of their cars and the turbo's last a long time.

 

Well I got this car for next to nothing and it was severely neglected it's whole life. It shows too. I just hope I can save it. Not that I can't just as easily go buy a car that actually runs and drives. It's the point of the whole thing knowing that you brought something neglected and abused and in shotty condition back to life. Gave it a second chance. Something we all wish we could have.

 

Yah I know the feeling I did the same with my Yellow car. See post from when I bought it till now.
