Don't get me wrong, it's pretty badass and everything, but you know what even more badass then a 740 with a Corvette engine? A Corvette with a Corvette engine.. ;p
Nice to see that its still on the volvo chassis. Seems like a lot of peeps that do these insane swaps wind up putting the body of whatever car they are modding on the chassis of a corvette.
Dad comes home with his new car, his son is dissapointed that it's a Volvo, then he gets a ride in it and says, "you can take me to school in this anytime!!"
@madjimms this is proven engineering,a real subject......u cant use that as an example .People buy this engine as they can....how many gods can u shake hands with ?......... NONE ! LOTS OF PEOPLE "CAN" AND "DO" BUY THIS LS SERIES .. AS ITS "REAL" NOT IMAGINARY !!!!
this is a nice car man, looks like a stock from a distance, its still a car and nt a metal cage like most ppl do to their cars is strip the car out 1 or 2 seats.
It probably has the stock rotating assembly...I'm guessing this was a fairly low budget build and they didn't want to go high boost. It probably has a ton of low end torque.
This is such a nice buildup! really enjoy this vid and love to hear the exhaust-sound as much as to see the engineinstallation. It makes a very clean and tuff impression. thats what i think(swedish volvofan)
Detta är en riktig skönhet. För er som inte vet vad jag skriver här o på vilket språk så kan ni kolla på google.tanslator ;). Fan vilken bil alltså =).. Jävla fint bygge där med motorn =)
Håller verkligen med dej! Det här bygget skulle stå sej mycket bra å ro hem en hel del priser på utställningar/uppvisningar även här i sverige! Verkligen ett superfint bygge!
Tackar så mycket Johansson ! Ja absolut det skulle vara ett väldigt fint prisobjekt även här i sverige =). Man får väl ta o se över budgetten *skratt* =D. Roligt o se hur serösa folk kan vara med sina byggen
i am becoming desperate to find some different wheels for my newly purchased volvo 740 turbo.. i want to spice it up but right now is sitting on stock turbo wheels.. WITHOUT the centercaps.. any ideas?
Its a 740 and not a v90 like someone wrote, v90 headlights are slimmer. btw, the front of swedish 740 and american 740 are diffrent, i always like the usa front more (headlights)
FFS!!! Are you blind or just stupid? This car maybe got bumpers from a 850. But it is NOT a 850. Searh on google on 850 and compare with this 740/940.
Doesnt even look anywhere remotley like an 850. You wouldve been closer saying it was a 940/960 wagon, with the volvo pegasus rims(you see those on 850s and s70s and the like). It could be a 740 wagon too.
I was being scarcastic I drive an 850R. Anyone that would contest the fact this car is a 740 knows nothing about Volvo's and if you don't know anything about Volvo's there's no point in even living. Pegasus rims only came on s60's from the factory nice try though.
agreed.They ruined a great car by putting yank garbage in it.
Funny thing is people have the T5 engine in the low 10's.This disgrace is only low 11's with more than twice the engine and 2 turbos.lolzzzz!!!!!!!!!!
this is a volvo 740, with a twin turbo ls1 corvette engine in it, i have the same volvo, just stock, 740, idiots, look up 1989 volvo 740 and compare them, exactly the same thing, and its a car, is a station wagon =]
extremly well buildt volvo, i live in sweden and breath volvo:D so you can just imagine how horny i got when i saw this the first time hehe. Does it still run? sincerly, Niclas
I came into contact with one of these Volvo Freaks in Toronto. He kept up with my 07 WRX especially after his second gear, he caught up and we stayed kinda equal. His was a 740 with a babyseat in the back man! I'm still in shock about this one the car looked like a square box. It was pure sleeper cuz, the guy then showed me a pic of his Beamer. (I'm keeping details out)
Think before you write treskalle... where's your respect? do you have a need for degenerate someone because they are wrong? I don't own a Volvo but what I know is that a 940 is much more boxy than a 850. it looks like a 850 but sure if you know best then it's a 940. nuff said!
This is by far the NICEST 740 conversion I've seen yet. The custom color looks great. The updated bumpers fit really well. The newer Volvo wheels fit the image perfectly. And of course it sounds awsome! Very nice job, dude! You should be proud. I hope you don't beat on it like this too often though. :-( What does it cost to have the engine/transmission swap done?
@palebeachbum Are you serious? You obviously have no clue what the hell a sports car is for. I mean, it definitely makes sense to make your car have 500+ bhp if you plan on going the speed limit to and from the grocery store. Idiot.
@FueledByCommunism Why pour blood, sweat, tears, and thousands of dollars on a car just to ruin it and shorten its healthy lifespan? You're calling ME the idiot? LOL
Twizted, you're pissing off the real Volvo guys who actually KNOW what they're talking about. STFU. There was NEVER a 5-cyl whiteblock in a 9-series Volvo. And who the fuck cares of a couple people make 500+hp on a whiteblock? Does that mean nobody else is ever allowed to do ANY other engine swap? That's like saying you should never swap a Honda because the stock engine can make 300hp. Retard.
