I'm looking for B16 B exhaust manifold, any idea from where to ask? I have the original B16 A combination manifold, but I would like to save it.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

I forgot to end this story. I made a phonecall to motor specialists and told my problem. They asked me to bring the cam to them and they can easily make it a bit steeper ("hotter") with 30 years of experience and knowing Volvo cams well. So I did this, cost was 120 € and the cam is inside ...

This gets confusing, I also haven't seen B16 A and B16 B camshaft specs anywhere. I emailed mentioned US company asking if their cam really for B16 B engine, no answer and I've tried three times so far. I'm prepared to order it if it's the one that I'm looking for. So at the moment it looks that I h...

Here's the B16 B cam currently available: http://iskycams.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2649&cPath=15 I'm not a specialist with these, I'll contact someone familiar with mentioned measurements. Very confusing when thay talk same time about B 18/20 engines too. If ther...

The car is original Sport version, the current engine is A with single carb. It will be just like the original soon. I'm working n it, I have carbs already, only this cam is missing. According to Amazon factory manuals 403626 is for A and 403737 is B, so I supose this is the truth. Supplliers have r...

Gets interesting, who is right? I can measure the current cam tomorrw (19.1) so let's get back to this then.

If you have colose ups from factory B16 B engine, Amazon or PV, those would be appreciated. I think the difference in colors was rocker cover, A is red and B is zinc coated thus shiny.

I'm in the middle of B16 engine overhaul, it's from PV Sport 1958. Problem is the camshaft and how to judge if the one inside is A or C type. The current cam has stamped 403736 number to end if it and in the middle I can see diecast C and D on the other side. Letter A is ot to be found at all. If th...

Thank you Lars, it's done, nearly too easy to be true! I have also the real od-light now, thanks for http://www.tradera.se. If someone cares, here is some images of my little (?) engine bay face lift: http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/ilkka313/Amazon-kasaus/ Hopefully I get to drive next week! Dr...

It is not the correct lamp and i don`t have any picture of the right one. The lamp is always on the same place. To calibrate the spedometer, use the spedometer adapter from the m40 gearbox. Thanks for this info. How to remove speedometer adaptor from the gearbox? Does it require to put the whole th...

Hello Sweden and all happy Amazon owners! First, sorry for me being stupid and not able to write this in swedish, but I'm sure you can understand. Question is about OD-lamp, is this the correct factory installed OD-lamp for B18 & M41, D-type: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/ilkka313/osat/OD...

Hello Sweden!

I was just wondering what needle should be used in Stromberg when having original B18 motor w/K-cam? I seem to have 4F. I have a book about needles for Stromberg and there is about 80 different needles available!

After doing some netsurfing I realized that many american cars used the very same heater valve in 50s and 60s. I contacted one place in USA dealing with these, the result is that a brand new seal is coming to me!

Heissan Sverige igen! Thanks a lot D59471, you are very helpfull! I heard from a finnish Volvo-freak that there has been one guy in Sweden repairing these valves. This obviously means that he has found a correct seal. Any info about this is appreciated! I try first to repair the old one rather that ...

Hello Sweden! Sorry, I'm writing this in english, I hope it's ok. I just put original heater valve into pieces, have a look: http://photobucket.com/albums/y41/ilkka313/osat/ Inside there is a simple rubber seal which is broken due to its age, it can be seen on the last image. Has anyone found a repl...
