As much as I wanted to just throw the new LS into the Volvo and send it, the car needed some love. It was SUPER greasy from all the leaks on the original motor and it was starting to get pretty rusty. Most of the rust is just surface stuff fixed by a quick wire brush and paint, but the drivers side back seat had a HUGE hole. Went ahead and cut it out and welded in some clean metal!

Tomorrow we’ll finish up some other rust holes and undercoat the entire car! THEN, the motor goes in.

This is so sick I've started watching your YouTube channel when you were working with the volvo before and I actually bought a 92 volvo 240. Its my daily right now but I just got a used 6.0 ls and I'm dying for a t56 so I can commit to doing it. Perfect timming. Now your working on your volvo. Gives me more incentive to build it. Love your videos ❤❤😆

Gingium

Haha that’s amazing. I daylied myn for a couple years before committing to the swap as well. But let me tell ya, it’s well worth it!

James

Yea I would assume. im probably gonna put a cam for 400hp should be good for me. Maybe turbo if I had money😂

Gingium

Yeah that’s plenty in these cars since they’re relatively light. It’ll be a ton of fun! The turbo can come a year or two more down the line 😉

That motor looks edible. I cannot wait to see and hear this Volvo ripping!

I'm happy you chose to clean up and fix some safety issues while the motorwas out of the car. A huge rust hole under the seat like that would have potentially made the seat come loose while you were driving. Stay safe. I love the content.
