I've got a 1981 Volvo 262C that my grandparents bought new. I'm in the process having a Volvo B230FT turbo engine put in it. The original B28F has 150,000 miles on it and was rebuilt 25,000 miles ago in 2003 I believe by Knoth Automotive at a cost of $2300. The engine runs fine it's just no fun at all and parts to make it fun are $$$. It still has the BW55 auto transmission attached which also works fine but has a bad leak from the tail seal. The tail bushing is probably shot as well. I don't know much about DeLoreans but I know most of the engine parts are the same as the 262C's B28F PRV. I'm located in Portland, Oregon and the engine is at a Volvo shop near 82nd & Sandy. It's not quite ready to be sold because they may still need some accessory parts off of it but it will be available soon. I'd love for someone to get some use out of it instead of just scrapping it.
Thanks, y-bot |

This is still available. It's out of the car but the car isn't done yet so something may still need to be taken off of it. I'd love to make some sort of tentative deal so it can go away quickly once it's not needed.
Thanks, Toby |

One last bump before the scrapper. The shop that's doing my engine swap is done with it now and wants it out of the way. Here's a link to my Craigslist ad:
