ok this may sounds dumb, however i want to see if any of you guys know about the volvo head swap on the 2.3? the guy doing all my tuning had mentioned it and it sounds awesome. i guess it is supposed to be a twin over head cam head that is capable of much much higher rpm's. i'm already close to the four hundred horse stage but i'm shooting for around six huindred by next spring any suggestions or tips where i can fing out more about this would help a ton!!!:icon_welder:
 
There is a video on YouTube...several, actually...it appears to boost base HP to something like 175-200 with just the head...and there is a turbo version that kicks out 250+ HP...just do a google search...actually...I did it for you...

The Volvo DOH cam head...if you do a search on google there is all kinds of info out there...I heard about that a few years back...
