Hey, Good luck with your Volvo, but you will have to go a ways to beat this for the ultimate sleeper. I understand it is an LS1 with a 175 shot in an old Fairmont wagon. Check out the dents in the quater panel! A kid seat and a couple bags of groceries ought to make it complete.

Looks like a nice swap. I like those headers. Pretty neat as they leave room below for the down pipe. Good luck and keep us updated on the progress. I can't wait to see this done.
