Got the rust 100% repaired and the underside painted. It looks and feels amazing!

Also fixed the rust in the engine bay and painted it! Also looks fantastic. So happy to be putting extra effort into this setup.

Also started to swap the big old brake booster for a much smaller booster from a geo metro. After that, engine goes in!!!!

Let us know how that booster works for you I’ve been looking for something smaller.

Holy shit that original booster the size of a small bomb lol

Gingium

Will do! Found this boosted was recommended on some Volvo forms. Stock master cylinder bolts right on just gotta drill new holes in the firewall

Gingium

Seriously though. It’s almost as thick as it is wide

Andrew Hoffman

i have a 244 and i would love the extra clearance lol which is why I'm curious to how much modification is necessary.

Gingium

I’ll let you know! So far just gotta drill some holes in the firewall and brake pedal.

Andrew Hoffman

I'm not scared of some mods ive got a cd009 behind my b230ft 👌😩 can't wait to see more of this crazy wagon 😍

Gingium

Wait whaaaaaat? Is the b230 the 2.3l from Volvo?

Andrew Hoffman

yeah the b230f is the na 4cyl sohc, the b230ft is the turbo version. 2.3L

Gingium

That’s so cool you got a cd009 on that.

Andrew Hoffman

go on turbobricks and look up AndrewTheHobbit for what i have written up. i think that was my username anyway

Gingium

That’s wild. Props to you!

Andrew Hoffman

you're a big inspiration for me and I wish i could do half of what you get done on your channel. props to YOU!

Looks great, Caleb! Well done. When all this is done, maybe swap a B230 into a 350Z, now that we know about the CD009 thing, haha. Swedes are somewhat commonly pushing the SOHC 8V versions above 700hp turbo and 300hp NA.

Wow looks soo good. Gonna definitely repair the rust on mine and do that. Can't wait to see the clean engine in the clean engine bay!!
