BTW, I completely understand the justification for not posting pics. Although, if my car looked anything like Terry's, then I would probably be more willing to show it off.

Good call on the 302 He's a friend of mine from Radford. Had a couple of friends drive down from up that way for some dyno fun.

Nifty. I bet he raises some hell with that thing. Still got the stock volvo rear? I know they can take a fair ammount of power but he would definately be pushing the limits! i think some of those came with a 410 gear, on 740's atleast not to sure bout a 240. I have a chevette collecting rust id like to do somthing like that with.

I don't think he'll mind me posting this. So, here is his website with the specs of the car: http://filebox.vt.edu/users/ebailey/v8volvo.htm

The video on the site is before it was turbo.
