Happy New Year from Maine Hi guys,
Been lurking for quite a while, but never had need for much LS info. Until recently that is, when I impulse bought a 1986 Volvo 244 DL for 200 bucks. My intention was to get something to tinker on in my spare time. After looking at what it would take to get the b230 to make a respectable amount of power, I was looking at quite a bit of money. I then started stumbling across the LS swaps. For the price it would take to get the b230 motor up to 280ish HP, I could put an LSx motor in it and make twice the power. So here I am! I'm trying to absorb as much information as I can, this winter, and then start in earnest come spring. (or at least 40+ degree weather)
So umm... Hello!
