1999 C70 Engine Swap
New to the forum. I have found great info in the past. I'm wondering if anyone would know what model year engines would be usable in my 99. I have the T5 2.3 Turbo (B5234T3). My current engine is on it's last legs and would like to know if a newer model would work. Possibly I could find a lower mileage engine from a newer year.
Thx!

TECH, isn't year 2001 the year Volvo changed to the Italian ETM? If so, I would think that that would be the only issue as the block, valve train, and etc would be the same since God was a corporal. With that stated, I should think that any short block that aylamarc found would suffice and only the induction would have to be used from his old engine.

So perhaps he could re-use his head and induction?? He did not indicate what was giving up on his engine.........I simply surmised that his bottom end and rings were probably shot.......... By the way TECH, it was 20 degrees below zero in Minnesota this morning. Florida ain't so bad, eh what?
