m47 swap ?

[dieselbrick]

Thanks for the help! That's all very useful, I'll try looking around for an m46 bellhousing, but I was also considering doing something like this https://forums.tdiclub.com/index.php...inside.476340/

I was looking around for the sleeve last night, can't seem to find that either. Maybe I'll talk to some vw shops, there are so many in my area. But in the end I'll probably need to fab that myself too. This car has forced me to do so much custom work due to the lack of parts, love this thing but it's really making me consider doing a redblock swap if it ever truly shits itself lmao.

I'm so glad I found this m47 though, mechanical parts are just so much easier to fix than electrical issues. the m46 design is definitely strange, but I guess volvo was just trying to be more advanced.

Many directions you can go if you get overwhelmed. LS swaps seem to be popular. A lot of fab work and chasing parts involved there also. What are your goals and desires?

Depends on your skills and tools.
