Morning all! My name is Mark and I'm on the Fylde Coast (near Blackpool). I currently own a 1992 245 which is just about to come off the road for a +T, but I've also bought a B5234T3 for it, which is the ultimate goal for the car. I'm not new to modifying cars (30 years) and have always been a Volvo fan, but this will be my first experience with whiteblocks (although I'm learning all the time), so I'm going to be asking a lot of questions, if that's okay. I'm a breakdown patrol for one of the big companies and a qualified mechanic, so that side of things isn't an issue, it's the engine specific knowledge that can't be found in your tool box or in a text book. I'll start a separate thread for the whiteblock questions, then?

Hahaha- just done a breakdown there not half an hour ago! My parents live there too. I see sunny Fleetwood in the background of your pic :D
