Volvo 244 With A Toyota 1UZ-FE V8

Peter from SwapBlogRU posted a video update on his “Volvexus” project car. Someone had already swapped the factory 90 horsepower 2.4 L diesel engine out of the 1979 Volvo 244GL for a Toyota 1UZ-FE V8 when Peter purchased it. He estimated it would take one month to work out a few of the issues after purchasing it. Well like a lot of project cars, the further he looked, the worse it got. Instead it took four months to fix most of the issues. Peter does a good job of explaining the ups and downs of owning a car with an engine swap.
