how much is the labour cost for transplant 940 engine anyone knows...

thinking to get halfcut and do a engine transplant instead overhaul my old
engine..

[mangusta]

740R,
Was it you who was selling the 960 seats ???

You might as well transplant the 940 turbo engine. At least you'll have
some decent power for overtaking other cars. It's not that much
power...around 160bhp only...but way better than the underpowered non-
turbo 940 engine.

[cheahcl]

160bhp?
nola..... can push it up to 260++bhp on a B200FT... imagine the potency
of B230FT ;)

[kilogram]

cheahcl...yes lah...if you boost it up you'll get more horses. I am
talking about stock condition. No mod at all.

[740R]

yes B230FT memang power... my original engine is B230FT...
but almost 300++KM.

feel dah kurang... and have problem such as engine noisy, stereng hard to
turn and brake problem.

so im thinking to transplant to low millage engine taken from halfcut shop.
the halfcut is around RM3500++

so i want to know average charge for labour of transplant B230FT engine.

anyone know?

[cheahcl]

1k-1.5k +++++
do have xtra cash in hand for unexpected expenditures.
since its already a FT, is it a Kjet or a LH system?? if its a LH system
then you my as well overhaul it... new parts at least.

[740R]

thanks... cheahcl,

but i prefer halfcut because i got 940 dashboard and all part is newer than
before.

after that baru seronok nak modify. up the turbo boost, high flow exhaust
system, air intake system and add an unichip.

at least can up to 200++bhp on 740 because 740 is lighter about 150kg
compared than 940.

[cheahcl]

200++bhp??? aim higher la fren
my B200FT (2.0l only) doing 264bhp... 224.4whp leh
ngek ngek
stock internals... T5`s turbo... thats about it... hahaha so happy to see
those figures!

[khalip]

Just for yr consideration, why not transplant nissan cefiro ( I think they
call it B20) engine in yr volvo ?. responsive, silent, economy and u be
the pioneer.
