Make sure to run some good oil in it, such as 5w-40 synthetic. Rotella T is always the cheapest around here, Waly-world has it for $19 a gallon.

That is what I have also heard..
I'll turbo it once I get the thing running up to par.
I might yank the motor out and fix it up a bit, but we will see how nicely I can get it running while installed.
Yea, I usually get my oil from walmart.
I could care less if I save money on my oil by buying it at walmart, but apparently that is taboo on Volvospeed
Well thanks Jason, you seem to know your D24's.
