Hey, why don�t you try ?
I�m struggelin with my Volvo conversion, some other folks on the list have
their small (insanity) projects going, A Vanagon with the DAF ( or Honda and
Ford too I believe ) package could be - interesting
I know Volvo did put the trans in the 340 line together vith a 1.4 liter
engine from Renault and I�ve driven one of those.....
What a drag....once you pop the throttle they peak and then stay at maximum
rpm�s until you shut it off
earplugs required
But they are darn fun, they will go 75 mph both forward and in reverse
The major problem ( besides the noice ) is that whatever the manufacturer
sais they loose a lot of power on the way to the rear wheels
I�d rather vote for the a regular automatic tranny !!!
( actually have one in my Volvo 745
