Probably a suitable engine for the weight of that thing. Those volvos are great, reliable, sturdy cars that still run great today, but were wayyyy too heavy for those little 4 banger motors...
I suppose because it is the ultimate sleeper. Who would guess a wagon can do 0-60 in 5 seconds? Also, because I can get the kids and all their gear to soccer faster than any mom out there.
I thought this was impressive too, but it really does make sense. One turn of the engine is one turn of the engine, it doesn't matter if its the original I4 or this V8 engine.. :)
I thought most tachs "listened" to each cyl fire off electronically, IDK anything about them though, so I'm going to give you the BotD. But, yeah def. makes sense that way.
was some guy honking you a 41 seconds into the video? (passing the white vehicle?) haha

Not really, one of those weighs about 3150lbs which a modern mazda 3 weighs about 3100-3200 lbs. By todays standards they are actually light

Why does everyone think Volvos are so heavy?
Look at the CURB weight, not the GROSS weight...doofuses.

I just love station wagons. I like economy cars. But I like the muscle wagon best.

Why would you put a V8 in a Wagon? I could see a sedan but a wagon ..LOL

Making the stock tach work with the ford v8 is pretty impressive by itself.
