Thanks for producing these English videos! There's so much knowledge in Sweden that we just don't get to hear much of in the US!

Fantastic video, and super happy to watch it as it’s exactly the spec I’ve done mine! I almost didn’t do the uprated crank pulley bit as I didn’t know about it, then thankfully someone mentioned it to me before it was too late!

Thank you very much for doing this in english, it is some really precious information accessible for non Swedish people !

You must be a professional
You had a 10mm socket RIGHT WHERE IT SHOULD BE 😮

I can't thank you enough on doing this video, i think its a first on youtube fir english speaking folks. I'm in france and really want to get started on building a redblock to 400-500 hp i can't say how greatfull i am to you for making this video !

Great content. I like watching someone who obviously knows what he’s doing and who takes pride in his work. I have a 300k mile NA ‘92 240 that was purchased and serviced locally, with all service records, which I’ve done a lot of suspension mods to and I’m in the middle of a T5 transmission swap. I was considering a V8 conversion, but after watching this one video, I am now considering keeping the redblock and purchasing the parts to convert it to turbo. You da man!

Can't wait to see more videos. I am in the process of doing a +T to my B230 block on 90 240 wagon. I look forward to more tips on building an engine.

I just bought my first 240. I’m ready for the next part of this series!

This oil pump is the na pump, the turbo models had taller gears, the na ones had a bigger flat ridge from the pickup to the pump cast in to them.

Awesome content, great to see it before I start to overhaul my redblock. Many thanks Tommy, waiting for more!

Man we Really miss the English uploads. Hell I'd be happy with English subtitles on the Swedish videos

Riktigt coolt. Hade en 945a för 15 år sen som va byggd av team AVR. Med ca 330hk original botten. Mkt special på den. Sugkam hybridturbo ombyggd original tändning.
1, 6 i ladd och varvade 7500.
Den gick bra 🤪💪

Saw your post on Turbobricks a few days ago, had to check this out! I currently own an XC70, and my wife used to have an S60, but we have never had a 240 yet. Bamse's Turbo Underpants is the series that got me started liking Volvo years ago. One day I will end up building one of these!

Love this video and the effort you put in to speak English as well is very appreciated
